4.0 out of 5 stars The best is yet to come, Mar 27 2002
By E. Marin "voracious reader" (Palo Alto, CA United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: STARFARERS (Mass Market Paperback)
Admittedly not the strongest start, but recommended regardless as the first volume of one of my favorite science fiction series of all time. Vonda McIntyre tends to incorporate a few favorite elements into many of her short stories and novels, and I consider this series to be the culmination of her imaginings, even if it didn't get the same kind of critical attention as "Dreamsnake" or "The Moon and the Sun." "Starfarers" is a bit slow, used mainly to introduce the principals and really only hinting at the adventures to come, but the payoff in the next three novels is more than worth it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Not Disappointed - an exciting, intriguing tale, April 16 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: STARFARERS (Mass Market Paperback)
Layer upon layer of juicy speculative detail about Earth in the near-future, particularly North America, and the events leading up to the launch of a space exploration habitat. Not your thing if you're into alien shoot-em-ups--the excitement here is more subtle, emotional and intellectual. Excellent political suspense, fascinating scientific ideas, interpersonal and sexual tension. People I cared about. I was particularly impressed with the way the writer tied all of her diverse storylines together, and spoke authentically from the perspectives of very different characters. I loved this book!
