Title: Worst Spider Robinson book I have read
Review: I have loved Callahan books.I have loved almost everything by Spider Robinson before this book.I had great expectations before I started to read this one. Sadly I had to be very disappointed. It seems Spider had material for a short story, and got a contract for a novel. Never have I encountered such amount of padding in any book before. There literary pages and pages of pure, unadulterated padding. There are paragraphs full of names, which are repeated a few pages later. There are sidetracks in the story which lead nowhere, and have no relation with the main plot of the story, and have practically no entertainment value at all.This might have been a fine short story, but this is a horrible novel.
Is the review positive or negative?
