Customer Reviews
Shadow of the Apt Excels on so many fronts
I don’t like so many words in a review. So let me say that I couldn’t put these books down until I had read the entire series and I am left in awe of the mind that could create such a world, such a story and attend to all of the details and threads of the story.
I have been an avid reader of SF and some fantasy for 50+ years and this set is in the world of Heinlein, Asimov, Hebert, and Clarke in ingenuity and great storytelling. It is a story for these times though and we can see our world in it and so see hope for it.
