(...) It's probably vague in the sense of the ignorant and unforgiving way they handled my religion... :-P Still a good read, though. Although _Legacy of Heorot_ was better, IMO. Cheers, - jsproat (26 years ago, 25-Feb-99, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)

(...) That was a good one. That had a sequel as well, if I am not mistaken. And there was another book dealing with a different planetary system but I don't recall the exact name. "Destiny Road", maybe?. Not as good, at any rate. -- Terry K -- (26 years ago, 26-Feb-99, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)

(...) _Beowulf's Children_? Almost as good, but still just a sequel. I've been waiting for _Destiny Road_ for too long now. Ditto for _Ringoworld Throne_ or whatever.

(...) I was really disappointed with it. _LOH_ was so good - their best in my opinion - and _BC_ degraded to a kind of cheezy romance in a SF setting. I guess maybe it was better than that, but only just. The only thing about that book that engaged (...) (26 years ago, 2-Mar-99, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)

(...) Yeah! (Duh...) (...) I liked those too. Imaginitive macrofauna is always good. When I was thinking about the book earlier for that post, I didn't recall them at all, just the bees on crystal meth that I thought were kind of boring. (26 years ago, 2-Mar-99, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)
