In this installment, disappointed by the two human representatives of interstellar 'Civilization,' the crew of the 'Starfarer' go to meet a more alien species, the squidmoths. Unfortunately (?), the squidmoth they dub Nemo is about to enter the last phase of its life, where it will physically change, reproduce, and then die. They have little time to get to know this species. Meanwhile, one of the main characters is going through his own physical change, becoming an aquatic 'diver,' due to the destruction of the genetics lab. This is not easy on his relationships... And Starfarer itself may be in trouble... the ecological system seems to be going haywire, and politics still plague every decision... Not bad, but I've become a little annoyed by the fact that although Starfarer is a community of at least several hundred people, it seems that the main dozen or so characters ONLY interact with each other. We hardly ever see random other people doing anything, and in such a small community, I'd think everyone would be getting to know one another pretty fast... Oh well, on to the last volume in this series... Zeige 3 von 3 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
