4.0 out of 5 stars Great story of well thought out scifi, 2 Aug 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Starfarers (Hardcover)
I loved this story. The aliens were very original, and well thought out, the evolution of Earth's society throughout the story was extremely well done and the human-alien relations were very good. I've not read much of Poul Anderson's work before but if his other stories are as good, or better than this I will definitly start reading more.
