Even I make slow, slogging progress I can't get over how completely implausible this whole story arc has become. The key to 'speculative fiction' is that at the minimum it must be believable.

The time has come to finally attempt to finish off this deplorable series. It's being going steadily downhill for the previous 2 volumes and I don't really expect much of a rescue from this one. The chief satisfaction coming from being able to finally put it to rest.

Dave is on page 334 of 400 of The Two Faces of Tomorrow

my copy actually has 442 pages - not 400. Damn near ruined my copy by falling asleep and leaving it too close to a mug of ice water that sweated condensation all through the night.

Broke this out for a 2nd Reading. Just waiting for the naval combat scenes when the missiles start flying. Funny how the possibility of this unreal scenario went right out the window so few years after publication with the entire collapse of the Soviet 'menace'.
