Auto_Da_Fe 29th Oct 2015		Realised pretty quickly on starting this that I already have a copy, from 30-odd years ago. That was 20p wasted! Back to the charity shop for this copy. (this comment is from another edition of this book)



Auto_Da_Fe 29th Oct 2015		Rated 5/10 In which Larry Niven's "Ringworld" is outsized by a Dyson sphere. Perfectly readable, but run of the mill space opera. (this review is from another edition of this book) 1 person found this review helpful. ✔︎ Helpful Review?
