Editorial Reviews

“No one has done more to keep the dream of space alive in science fiction than Ben Bova.” Wall Street Journal
“A riveting ride through the early years of interplanetary settlement, full of surprises and impossible to put down. Loved it.” Jack McDevitt, award-winning science fiction author
“Sam Gunn Jr. is a romp, a lovingly written, entertaining gem of an SF novel that takes the old ideals of a capitalist Space Race culture, builds them big, and then builds them bigger.” SFFWorld.com
