4.0 out of 5 stars Read like a Traveller campaign, Sep 13 2003
By Mark J. Urbin (Westborough, MA USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: DISINHERITED (Mass Market Paperback)
I'm a fan of the Classic SF RPG Traveller. I'm betting that the author is a Traveller fan too. There were just too many concepts and items straight from the game. Tailored Vac Suits, Battle Dress, Stutterwarp (ok that's 2300, but close enough), and more.

This made the book more fun for me. Non-Traveller SF fans should like it as well.

3.0 out of 5 stars A quick read, somewhat unsatisfying, Nov 8 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: DISINHERITED (Mass Market Paperback)
I had fun reading this book as it moved along a decent pace( nothing I hate worse than authors that pour in more detail than story). However, this "story" lacked a lead character that the reader felt strongly about. The concepts, like the single origin for both the Terrans and Raehanivs was a neat subplot that was sort of glossed over. I wished the author would've explored that angle more. The Korvassha were as nasty an enemy as any Niven or Pournelle had come up with. I kept expecting a counterattack but the book just ended. This book had enough going for it to have gone another 100 pages. Maybe there is a sequel?

3.0 out of 5 stars Good plot, bland characters and ify writing., Jun 18 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: DISINHERITED (Mass Market Paperback)
Steve White is the coathor of the Starfire series of Books, which i happen to love. Having read all of D. Webers current books (the other author of the Starfire books) I turned to the works of White to kill some time during summer break. It doesn't take long to realize that Weber is a far superior author. Steve White lacks the talent to make characters seem real...this book also lacked the furious pace so typical of Starfire , but not all is bad. This book has an interesting plot and I personally intend to read the seuquels just to figure out what the heck is the deal with humans from other worlds and other whatnot. If you like Weber, read this. If you can only read one book, skip it.
