Another good book by Foster in the Flinx & Pip series. This time Flinx pursues some men who have kidnapped his foster mother. My favorite moment in the book was his description of these giant moose-like creatures on this planet where his foster mother is being held. These creatures are huge, shaggy, and tend to trample and destroy everything in their path. Quite amusing, I thought.

Not as thrilling as I'd hoped. Nor were the characters as sympathetic or amazing. I wasn't able to identify with the protagonists. The language was so-so, nothing to get excited about. The premise was good, but I feel like there was a lot of untapped potential.

My favorite series of Sci-Fi and this is the book that began the journey into the future that Foster created. He has an amazing imagination and has created great characters and a great story to examine this future.
