Spectre's Review
This is, simply put, a good book. The best part is when an alien ship comes up to see what condition the human ship is in.
Two of the human ship's crew are outside of the ship doing a space-walk. The aliens launch a probe to look at the human
ship close up. One of the human flips off the probe and gets blown to smitherines. I almost lost bladder control on that
one! It's a good story about how a disgraced crew regain their honor and become heroes. I'd put this in your permanent
collection. It's worth reading every couple of years or so.
Spectre's Rating
Worth it just for the finger scene!!
