review 1: I quite enjoyed this book. I did not know that it was a part of a serious until I was almost done. This book is #21. I can't wait to read the next installment. I am interested as to whether the new delegation will "conquer" the inhabitant of new earth or play nice. I also want to know how did the people on mars fare? Like I said, good book. it was my first time reading a Ben Bova piece. I will keep an eye out for book 22.
review 2: 4/2014 Although the story had some interesting ideas about space travel and intelligent life in the universe, this story had the worst characters I have encountered in ages. The story involved a group of twelve people (eleven scientists and one leader/diplomat) sent to explore an earth-like planet over 80 light years from Earth. T
... morehe conversations and interactions of the characters was closer to squabbling middle school kids than top scientists. Blah... less

Choppy, juvenile dialogue. Earth's best and brightest are pretty lackluster.

Probably the best Ben Bova novel I've read to date.

Bova leaves the Solar System!
