Title: Can you plagiarize yourself?
Review: A nice mix of action and science fiction, Chindi helps move contemporary sci-fi away from the boring, pedantic grad student ramblings or poli-sci obsessions that are all too often replacing good storylines.I would have given it four stars but it is EXACTLY THE SAME STORY AS HIS EARLIER WORK "DeepSix"! After enjoying Chindi I sought out more of his work and picked up DeepSix only to discover it is the same plot line with many of the same action sequences and basically the same dramatic climax. It was a good story once McDevitt; twice is just greedy laziness.I won't read any more of his work as I expect he will keep recycling the same story. But if you've never read any of his work and like Sci-fi that you can read without a CRC handbook then pick up a copy of Chindi.
