Dagny's review of Red Thunder
Red Thunder by John Varley
When my brother and I speak of this book, we refer to it, albeit politically incorrectly, as the story of a retard and his space ship.
in truth the 'retard', Jubal, is actually a brain-damaged savant who invents a revolutionary propulsion system. This novel has a little of the stink of 'teen movie' about it, but oddly that adds to its charm and makes it a lot more fun to read.
