Customer Reviews

One of the most under-rated books ever

This book is just as good as Modesitt's more recent sci fi works. It has been one of the worst-selling books of all time because of the distressing tendency of sci-fi snobs to equate "science fiction" only with "space opera". The Green Progression is a fictional story in which the science features as a major component of the story. The authors display a distressing yet amusing insight into Beltway bureaucracy. The story contains all of the moral and ethical questions that make Modesitt's writing so much more valuable than the standard good guys vs. bad guys tale. Jonnie Black and Jack McDarvid are characters just as interesting and well-developed as Doktor Eschbach. It is a shame that the book didn't sell better so that the authors could get a contract to write a sequel.
