Editorial Reviews

"Nobody's perfect, but Spider comes pretty damned close."

Ben Bova

"If one were given the task of creating Spider Robinson from scratch, the
best way to do it would be to snatch James Joyce from history, force-feed
him Marx Brothers films and good jazz for the better part of a decade, then
turn him loose on a world badly in need of a look at itself."

The Vancouver Sun

Spider Robinson is the hottest writer to hit science fiction since Harlan
Ellison, and he can match the master's frenetic energy and emotional
intensity, arm-break for gut-wrench."
