5.0 out of 5 stars Truly Special!, April 12 2004
By Waldo7 (Gardner, Ks United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: SPECIAL DELIVERANCE (Hardcover)
This is my favorite s/f novel of all- much like Tolkien - a must read . The story works at several levels; you are simply absorbed. It still has the same magic every time I read it.
So good it hurts!!

4.0 out of 5 stars Powerful, if somewhat naive, Jun 25 2001
By Mark M. Fox (Brooklyn, NY United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: SPECIAL DELIVERANCE (Hardcover)
While the main action of the book takes place on a kind of a board-game world where the superior race of non-humans representing the sort of the galactic Greenpeace conducts trials to see which humans from countless alternative Earths qualify to make a fresh start at bettering themselves, the actual message of the book lies deeper than solving alien puzzles. The adventures of the band of complete strangers trying to survive in an unfamiliar and, for the most part, unfriendly world underscores the importance of interpersonal communications and the need for certain character traits without which an individual cannot survive and live a meaningful life. The book is an engaging mixture of Freudian and Darwinian concepts, although the characters are a bit cartoonish, and the narration is a bit flat at times.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wondeful book from start to finish!, Nov 5 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: SPECIAL DELIVERANCE (Hardcover)
This book was one of the first few books I had ever read. You actualy begin to feel sorry for some of the characters when they find out that they had made a mistake in judgement. Even though they were not the nicest of people. If you find yourself able to still get a copy of this book do so, you will not regret it!
