Title: An enjoyable read, maybe not for everyone, but unique.
Review: BE is unique, a product of a unique writer. Hubbard is certainly not Asimov, nor is Asimov Hemingway or Gogol. Each author and story must be considered individually and taken as nothing more.BE's plot, prose and characters captivated me. I read the book in one week. The development of the alien characters is the book's single greatest strength. BE is rife with amusing, quirky alien personas that kept me picking up the book. In fact the human characters are almost secondary in terms of entertainment value.If you like technically oriented, scientifically sound sci-fi this book might not be for you. At least check out the first 100 pages. Don't confuse BE with Scientology. You wouldn't even know they are by the same author.
