Publisher Description

IT ALL HAPPENED SO FAST One minute the two space Hab astronauts were scoop-diving the atmosphere, the next they'd been shot down over the North Dakota Glacier and were the object of a massive manhunt by the United States government. That government, dedicated to saving the environment from the evils of technology, had been voted into power because everybody knew that the Green House Effect had to be controlled, whatever the cost. But who would have thought that the cost of ending pollution would include not only total government control of day-to-day life, but the onset of a new Ice Age Stranded in the anti-technological heartland of America, paralyzed by Earth's gravity, the "Angels" had no way back to the Space Habs, the last bastions of high technology and intellectual freedom on or over the Earth. But help was on its way, help from the most unlikely sources ....Join # 1 national bestsellers Larry Niven and Jerry Pournelle and Michael Flynn in a world where civilization is on the ropes, and the environmentalists have created their own worst nightmare: A world of Fallen Angels At the publisher's request, this title is sold without DRM (Digital Rights Management).

VERY Disppointing

I have half a dozen of Larry's books and nearly all of them are fantastic books that are hard to put down. Fallen Angles was a chore to pick up. I grudgingly read it to the end to get to, what I hoped would be, a decent finale. Nope, the conclusion wrapped itself up in half a page. An unsatifactory ending to a sefl indulgent and at times, stupid, book. Good job I didn't read this one first, otherwise I probably would never have bought The Moat, Lucifers' or Heorot - all brilliant books that I do highly recommend. Fallen Angles, however, is probably the most disappointing book I think I've ever read.
