A nice review of Marseguro…
…showed up today on the blog arch thinking. While she had some criticisms, it’s generally a good one. Some highlights:
…Willett really shines at world-building. He brought Marseguro (the planet) to life for me and I enjoyed getting to know Earth of the Body Purified (which reminded me of Heinlein’s religious dictatorship of “If This Goes On –“ and Revolt in 2100), however briefly the action takes place there.
…Willett is a strong writer with a great concept and good story. Anyone who wants to read a novel that talks about tough ethical questions and has characters whose lives are in shades of grey will enjoy Marseguro.
I look forward to the promised review of Terra Insegura.
