Title: Please don't buy this book
Review: I loved the Callahan series. In fact, I love most of what Spider Robinson has written, but this book is boring, self-serving and exists only to help him pay for his latest vacation.I gave this book every chance I could. I would think "this is boring", but because it was Spider, I read on. I would think "what a stupid plotline", but because it was Spider, I read on. I would think "this book is going nowhere!", but because it was Spider, I read on.Two chapters from the end, the book attempts a plot twist. At that point I thought, "You know what, I don't care.", and I closed the book.I never slam a book without offering an alternative. If you want to read an excellent book, try Amy Thomson's "The Color of Distance" instead. Leave this one on the book store shelf.
