Reread from before I joined GRs. Not as good as I hoped in audio because all the sci-fi terms were easy to tune out but that's more me. ...more

I was surprised by how funny this book was. It was a pleasant read, made up of funny machines and characters. The characters end up on a legendary planet, and their experiences were not what I would expect of such a mythical place.
