3.0 out of 5 stars Nice try at all alien story., December 21, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Planet of Whispers (Hardcover)
Despite what you might think science fiction tends to avoid writing about aliens. Stories like this that lack human characters are almost more common in film. In fact the dark crystal is the best all alien story I know of & it's a movie. The Encyclopedia of sf makes it sound better than it is. It is okay though. Like Howard Waldrop, & a few others Kelly is primarily a short story writer so that might explain why it's just okay.
