Reactions and Reviews

"It is the only humorous story, being set in an a/u approximately some forty years after Gauda Prime. Humor is very hard to do, and everyone reacts differently to it. I thought the story was mildly amusing. I don't go in for utter zaniness as a rule so it is hard for me to be fair to the story."[1]
