Title: Poor and crass, pass on this one
Review: The highly detailed descriptions of shuttle operations at the beginning hint of an enjoyable read to come. The "reviews" likening the author to Clarke or Asimov are luring...Forget it. This repetitive (how many times must we use silver stubble as a stand in for old man or the texture or Titan slush at each footstep) and crass (is it truly necessary to detail human defecation and urination dozens if not hundreds of times?). Bleak, dull, improbable and fatalist. Run, run fast, run far... away from this book!
