5.0 out of 5 stars Unexpected sophistication, December 30, 2000
By 
QuirkyZ (Providence, RI) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Bug Wars (Paperback)
Robert Asprin writes comedy, right? I had made the unfortunate mistake of bottlenecking this author's style - and I did love the Myth series of books - but he covered a serious science fiction drama with an impeccable portrait of war, and a species constrained by a sense of honor and dignity. The writing in this book was surprisingly sensitive and heartfelt, and the characterizations were wholly satisfying. This was a good read, on many levels.

5.0 out of 5 stars A new sci-fi plotline with classic S&S attributes, August 27, 2004
This review is from: The Bug Wars (Hardcover)
This book is simply the best Sci-fi novel I have ever had the pleasure to read, hands down. It combines the sophistication and imaginative futuristic weaponry with the traditional imperialism of a race versus another, with insects as humans simply to make it that much more weird and exciting. My father read this book to me before I could even read it myself (I don't recommend this considering it would scare normal kids beyond words) but it really is a good book for anyone to read over the age of about 13. action-packed, suspensful, intruiging, creative, mysterious and fast-paced, this book is not only one you can't put down, but is one you will most certianly pick up again in the future.

5.0 out of 5 stars A keeper, to read again and again., July 29, 2001
This review is from: The Bug Wars (Paperback)
I'm a big fan of Asprin's work, so I may be a bit prejudiced. Unlike his other work it is barely humerous at all but still very captivating. I loved this mix of Action / Adventure and Millitairy Science Fiction. The aliens are really alien, and very cool.

(Sophisticated? Hell yeah, like a magnum blazing in the full moonlight).
