Negative Positive
Title: Pathetic
Review: Considering this book won both a Hugo and a Nebula, it's hard to believe how bad it really is. You could make a case for this being the worst novel to ever win these two awards. The award selection committee must have been on drugs when they chose this one. The novel is dull, boring, unimaginative, and goes nowhere, at least nowhere interesting. The author should have gone into anthropology like her great father. Maybe she would have been better at it, because the culture she has created in this book is uninteresting, unbelieveable, and sounds like the more dismal parts of New Jersey anyway. A good candidate for the first sci-fi book burning, since it's not even worth the paper it's printed on, and maybe it would keep someone warmer than the people in this frozen world. Give this frigid story the cold shoulder.
