Editorial Reviews
Review
"Sector General is one of the few places in SF that one would really, really like to exist." --David Langford

"Over the years White has built a large and enthusiastic audience for his Sector General series, which concerns a fully realized interspecies hospital on the rim of the Galaxy. His fascinating cast of characters and his belief in the basic decency of all intelligent life-forms have seen him through six Sector General books over the past quarter century." --James Gunn, The New Encyclopedia of Science Fiction

"Neat, humorous, and humane." --The Ultimate Guide to SF
