5.0 out of 5 stars
psion,
This review is from: Psion (Paperback)
this is an excellent novel. it is kind of a cross between William Shatner's Tek series and JD ROBB's series. it is futuristic, set in outer space on the crab nebula, and full of twists and turns. The characters are fleshed out well and interesting. i highly reccommend the book to all sci fi readers

Worth it, to get to Catspaw,
By jancola (Encino, CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Psion (Paperback)
Warning: This book is not as good as Snow Queen. It has a lot of the same lovely, anthropological attributes that Snow Queen shines with, but certain elements (ie the cardboard villain Quicksilver) are not as well conceived. I do highly recommend this book for two things, which are 1) Cat. He is a great character and this book is spoken in his own unique voice, and 2) 'Catspaw,' the sequel to this book, is full-on excellent, and you will enjoy it more if you read this book. The other complaint I have is the cover art. I mean, who is that supposed to be? Cat is a teenager in this book, and that dude looks 40. The original cover art was uglier, but at least it looked like Cat. The cover art for 'Catspaw' was so much better--did Micheal Whelan do this one too, and if so, was he half-asleep?

This review is from: PSION (Paperback)
I had no clue there was a book called PSION untill i went to a computer artwork site that made wallpapers of Buffy and Angel and Firefly[all totally awesome shows].I saw a challenge pic that a girl made using some characters in Angel, Firefly,and Smallville.The bottom said based on the book Psion by Joan D. Vinge.I thought id check it out and it was awesome.Read if you love science fiction.
