Reviews

[Emmanuelle]

It was a strange book to read. Some of the stories are weird and disturbing.
Others are really interesting and made me think.
There was a looooooooong article/pseudi article on vehicles on other planets and I couldn't get my mind on it. I was bored... so bored. Perhaps another day will I find an interest in this kind of technical description.
I have a soft spot for those 'old' stories. To see what was supposed to happen in the future but also to find little treasure of stories.
I had a very good time reading it.
