Old-fashioned hard science fiction. Not a book for those who want character development. The solution to the central mystery was even more insane than I had guessed.
I liked this book a lot. Its a much better book than my first Hogan novel (Thrice Upon a Time). A human skeleton is found on the moon, but its 50,000 years old. The book is the story of slowly unraveling the mystery of how it got there. Some cool ideas that I didn't expect. Looking forward to the rest of the books in the series.
This was a very interesting book. While not a barn-burner, and it doesn't pretend to be action-packed, it was an interesting hard-science mystery, with new developments right up through the end of the book. It does make me interested in continuing on to The Gentle Giants of Ganymede. Comparable to 2001 or Rendezvous with Rama or Eon, so it is in good company and well worth the read.
