This article first appeared on East Niagara Post on December 15, 2015. It is repeated here as I work to put all my book reviews in one place. They will be posted on Thursdays or Fridays and only be altered from the original in that I will add publisher information and pages. Hopefully, by revisiting these reviews, other people might find a book they'd like to pick up for their own enjoyment.
Saturn Run -- John Sandford & Ctein
G.P. Putnam & Sons
496 Pages
When I first moved from the children’s section at the library, I found myself a somewhat permanent resident of the science-fiction aisles. In those days, my favorites were the hard science-fiction selections. Books by Arthur C. Clarke, Isaac Asimov, and Ben Bova mostly found their way home with me. Sadly, over the years, it seems like good, hard science-fiction has become harder to find, while the books being published have relied more on magic and fantasy than science.
