5.0 out of 5 stars A Reprinting of Two Great Stories, Mar 25 2004

By

Liz "sorkabeth" (Springfield, Va United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Ship Who Saved the Worlds (Hardcover)

There are a number of reviews that are negative simply because these stories were previously published as 2 separate novels, The Ship Who Won and The Ship Errant. They are missing the point. The point is that both of the original novels were wonderful! As always, Anne McCaffrey creates a rich and detailed universe and draws you into it on page one. If you already have both novels separately, then you don't need this one. If you don't, what better way than together in a shiny new hardback!

2.0 out of 5 stars Sorry, I agree with everyone else..., Jan 10 2004

This review is from: The Ship Who Saved the Worlds (Hardcover)

I bought this book, not realizing that It was just a re-hash of her old books.

I noticed that the publisher is doing this with a LOT of McCaffrey's books. I had added these on my wishlist before they were published, because it *looked* like they were new stories. Too bad. I should have waited for the synopsis.

This review is from: The Ship Who Saved the Worlds (Hardcover)

I hate to see a book containing two great stories receiving negative reviews simply because these stories were published previously. There are hundreds of great science fiction stories that have gone out of print over time. I think that these books being made available again is wonderful opportunity for readers to explore and enjoy great works from sf's past.

I have to laugh at how many people are apparently buying books because they have the nice and shiny 'new' label on them without taking the time to find out what the book is about... Read more

This is a great book if you don't previously have the two books that are compiled here. I did have the two books and was disappointed that the description did not say that this... Read more
