Title: An excellent old-style scifi read, notwithstanding a few minor quibbles
Review: In this age of revisionist science fiction like 'The Matrix' and space operas like 'Star Wars', it was refreshing to read this good old-fashioned saga of a trip to another planet. The science was accurate and not overwhelming, the imagery of the Venusian clouds and the descent to the surface were breathtaking, and there were some incredibly exciting moments. Although the reasons for the expedition to Venus were a bit lame and the interpersonal relationships and drama didn't always work, these are minor complaints. One thing I especially like were the allusions to John Milton's 'Paradise Lost'. Often when writers try to weave classic literature into their stories it comes off seeming forced and pretentious, but Bova succeeds admirably. Favorite quote from 'Venus': "You think only scientists and people with PhD's after their names can enjoy the wonders of the universe?" Highly recommended.
