Comic book characters caught up in a comic book story supposedly set a billion years in the future yet playing out like an episode of Buck Rogers. Maybe I should have read the rewrite by Benford instead...? ( ) It's so difficult to review a book like this. I read it when I was ... goodness, eleven years old or so? As I recall I got it via the old Scholastic Book Service at my school, but that memory could be a fragment. Of course I LOVED it then ...! I loved anything with the name "Arthur C. Clarke" on it, because of 2001 ... well, with the possible exception of "Tales from the 'White Hart'" which I thought was silly. This novel was later revised into _The City and the Stars_. I read both, loved both, but I'd really need to re-read them, perhaps side by side, to provide a new zoo review ... (I intend to do so - please don't flag this as 'not a review'!). no reviews | add a review
