5.0 out of 5 stars
A good SF coming of age story.,

This review is from: The Lost Star (Paperback)
A young woman suddenly stranded on a backwater world with a team of scientists must rethink her priorities and her plans for the future when a mysterious group of alien creatures try to communicate with her. I kind of consider this to be a young teen's version of "Little Fuzzy" by H. Beam Piper. I really loved this story when I was younger and snared it for my collection early on. It's an underdog story with a happy-ending, but it has enough drama and serious issues that it doesn't come across as sweet and sacharine. For young readers of SF, particularly those who like the human side to the genre, I highly reccomend this book if you can find it. It's a great introduction to planetary exploration and alien races.
