3.0 out of 5 stars Worth reading if you are looking for this type of book., 12 Jul 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Outward Bound (Hardcover)
This is a hard book for me to review. I am of an age to have read Heinlein and Asimov's juveniles when I was a teenager, although most of them I read as an adult. I read this book primarily because I am a big fan of James Hogan. I have not read any of the other Jupiter Novels, but I get the feeling from reading some of the descriptions and reviews on Amazon that there is a specific formula or "bible" that is set up for this series. That is not bad in and of itself, but I couldn't help but feel that Hogan was a bit constrained by this format. I remember the Heinlein juveniles as being a bit more free-wheeling. I would say that if you are an adult fan of Hogan, don't expect too much of this one. If you are a teenager and have enjoyed the other books in the Jupiter series, you will enjoy this one as well. It is a quick read, the characters are likeable, the science is realistic, and the changes in the main character and his friends as they come of age are believable.
