4.0 out of 5 stars Surprisingly good easy readin' scifi, November 21, 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: The Space Eater (Paperback)
A surprisngly good read. I bought this as one of perhaps fifty scifi paperbacks at a used bookstore; it was good enough to make me go and look up what else he's written. (Rather a lot, it turns out.) Just good scifi.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hard SF at its Best!, March 14, 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: The Space Eater (Paperback)
Langford had a long career as a professional physicist, and this shows in the convincing physics he puts on display in this fast-moving, thought-provoking tale. At the same time, he wears his expertise lightly: the reader is never stifled by the science, nor struggling to comprehend it. Very few authors get this balance right, but Langford does it perfectly ... and tells a rollicking good tale into the bargain. Highly recommended.

4.0 out of 5 stars Awesome "Pandoras Box" Sci-Fi!, January 7, 2010
This review is from: The Space Eater (Paperback)
Excellent writing with great details, from gruesome first-person deaths to tricky situations that reminded me of the great dilemmas Asimov would set up in the Foundation series (which constitutes about 1/3 of the sci-fi i've read ;) I'm not sure if certain small, insignificant parts were confusing, or if i was just sleep-deprived. Either way, i couldn't stop reading and finished it in 2 days.
