Farside Audiobook

" 10 word review: horny middle school personalities conspire against each other; the moon "

" Interesting ideas, but the characters are fairly one-sided and not particularly likable. "

" Reads like a book written by some teenager. "

" audio -- a book about building the 100M mirrors on the dark side of the moon to find Goldilocks. nice SCI of the sci-fi "

" Typical old style science fiction, fast read. OK story but not much depth. "

" Murder mystery/romance lite set on the moon. It's funny how so few authors get the love/romance part right. Female authors write it too mushy and male authors write it too factual. Although I wouldn't rush out to read another book by this author, I wouldn't not read another of his books. "

" Fun book. Easy to read. However, the tension wasn't there for me. "

" Way too much expository information delivered via the thoughts of the characters. "

" This is a remarkably bad book. It is awfully, laughably bad. I find it hard to believe it was actually written by Ben Bova. "

" I unabashedly like Bova's books - yeah, women are all sex objects and men are all macho and wacko, but they're fun reads. And SPACE!! "

" The short chapters were distracting and it ended too nicely. It would have been better with a little twist. "

" Good addition to the Grand Tour stories. Fast paced and good tech stuff. "

" Another book with an interesting location - this time the far side of the moon. However, it rapidly turned into a book I've read many times in the past; mysterious deaths, lots of potential suspects, etc., etc. Only liked it for reading about the science of living on the moon. "

" Interesting technology, but cookie cutter characters and plot "

" Not my cup of tea. While I do enjoy sci-fi thrillers; this one sort of flopped. It never piqued my interest. "

" Have been reading SF for forty (or more?) years. Good read, somewhat trite murder mystery. Remember, the inanimate doesn't kill -- it takes a person to release the violence of such objects. "
