I read TBP and A Deepness in the Sky at the same time. Despite the "big ideas", TBP isn't even in the same league. Can't bring myself to read the second TBP book, just don't care. Did buy a Fire Upon a Deep recently, looking forward to it.
- jrjarrett 7y agoA Fire Upon the Deep is SUCH a good book. I loved it; the idea that something like the '90s net news had gone galaxy-wide was a great plot idea....
- r00fus 7y agoThe first chapter itself was gripping. I was like, if this book is 1/10 as good as the first chapter, I'm sold. It's now one of the books I recommend to teen scifi readers.
