Christopher Stasheff is engaging! Mixing political discourse in a space-cowboy setting comes across as genuine. His work serves as a reminder for today's reader to remain skeptical.

4.0 out of 5 stars Escape Velocity, April 16, 2000

Fantastic! Christopher Stasheff has done it again; the wizard of fantasy has proved his mastery of science fiction in a fascinating reality. This explains the origins of the Gramarye colony featured in the Warlock series, complete with a few puns. I highly recommend it.

I was disappointed with this book. Perhaps becuase I did not read it first, it lacked the excitement I felt when reading "The Warlock in spite of himself." Not one of my Favorites by Christopher Stasheff.
