Customer Reviews

Nothing's a five

Unlike the previous reviewer I think the humour works though the jokes don't. Unfortunately in the sequel Shaw keeps the jokes and loses the humour. It's a total turkey don't bother with it. I think this is a great book though and routinely recommend it.

Original Ideas, Brilliant Plot Twists - Vintage Shaw.

I'll begin by stating that I think Bob Shaw to be one of the greatest SF writers ever (bar none). Bearing my bias in mind 'Who Goes Here' is a clever, easy to read and well plotted novel. I reluctantly admit it to be slightly less enjoyable than some of the author's other works because often the book's humour doesn't quite work. Still, you wouldn't go wrong to pick this up provided you appreciate intelligent writing, original ideas and minimal cliches.
