The setting is very believable and familiar even though it is millions of light years from home. The Aliens are interesting and have a good back-story. Just enough to create a little sympathy for them. The Enye were a little neglected in detail, but some of that lent to their mystery. I hope that Ramon Espejo returns someday for another adventure. He's one tough son-of-a-bitch!Wellington Wigouthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17894893237341593124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4438041449595085165.post-32389960378211542652008-01-21T10:08:00.000-05:002008-01-21T10:08:00.000-05:00Rastronomicals (love that name btw!), thanks for s...Rastronomicals (love that name btw!), thanks for stopping by and sharing your thoughts :) I'm glad you're enjoying the book so far and would love to hear your final thoughts...Roberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15006565422867420980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4438041449595085165.post-36839626715314780682008-01-20T00:56:00.000-05:002008-01-20T00:56:00.000-05:00In the middle of the book right now; found this si...In the middle of the book right now; found this site by searching on Alta Vista for "tatecreude."<BR/><BR/>It's an astonishingly quick read; I got the thing in the mail from the Sci Fi book club three days ago, and I suspect I;ll be done with it by the time two more have passed.<BR/><BR/>The last time before this novel that Iencountered the word <I>pendejo</I> had been in a Cheech and Chong movie--<I>Nice Dreams</I>, maybe?--and I think that's amusing if not outright funny. But at different times during the book I've wondered whether someone of Hispanic background might not take offense at Ramon's sometime broadly-painted makeup.<BR/>On the other hand, it's interesting in what the authors have done with Ramon, because they immediately and in no uncertain terms give the reader reason to dislike and disrespect the protagonist, while nonetheless going on to slowly unravel the threads that reveal parts of Ramon's character which are likeable and respectable after all. Neat trick.<BR/><BR/>If I can fixate on GRRM for a bit, it almost reminds me of Jaime Lannister, althought the rehbilitation was more sudden for Jaime.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, seeing this post, I just figured I'd drop a post saying how much I was enjoying the book.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4438041449595085165.post-389707895380937612008-01-15T19:38:00.000-05:002008-01-15T19:38:00.000-05:00Well, I definitely think you might like this book ...Well, I definitely think you might like this book then :)Roberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15006565422867420980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4438041449595085165.post-90800774000576549852008-01-14T18:30:00.000-05:002008-01-14T18:30:00.000-05:00Wow, this sounds fascinating.
