Product Description
From Booklist
This sequel to Taylor's Ark (1993) carries on the adventures of Dr. Shona Taylor, her growing family, her menagerie of useful animals, and their home, the starship Sibyl. This time, the entourage lands on a planet on which a longevity experiment has gone spectacularly wrong, producing results exactly the opposite of what was intended, which the experimenters are trying their best to hide. Meanwhile, bounty hunters are on Shona's trail, and banks are trying to repossess the Sibyl. A heroine who must meet mortgage payments is a welcome variation from the norm in space adventures, and the book is full of other nice touches, too. Altogether, quite superior entertainment. Roland Green
Ingram
Taylor's Ark, an unusual starship medical unit that makes house calls throughout the galaxy, run by Dr. Shona Taylor and her menagerie of assistants, comes to the aid of a planet on which humans and aliens alike are dying of a mysterious aging epidemic.

Tthis book showed that a woman is capable of doing more than staying the ship and watching little blips on the screen. She is able to take care of her family, another species, an entire planet, and the bills, all at once, all the whil watching her toddler. Great book and great villians!

ok,
By Sharon L. Mathews - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Medicine Show (Paperback)
It was interesting, but seemed to move rather slowly. I expected better of this author. Perhaps good for younger readers. Does not use bad language. Enjoyable story.
