“This is the very first Ben Bova book I ever read, and I only ended up reading it because I found the second book of The Asteroid Wars at the dollar store without knowing it was the second book. (In my defense, it had a funny title, The Rock Rats). I was glad to find that I actually liked it, which makes me excited to get to read the next one.
A few details were new to me because some of these characters were already written about in the previous series, but it didn't leave me totally confused. The scientific details of this book were incredibly interesting and I was too captivated to search up if any of it is possible, cause who am I to doubt an author's knowledge of space travel and whatnot?
While I did like the characters, this book suffers from the writing of women from a man's point of view. One of the characters is talked about as being incredibly attractive, naive, and airheaded and how no guy leaves her alone (Justice for Amanda), and at one point the main protagonist says he would've dated her if he were any younger or less heartbroken about his last girlfriend.
With all that being said, if I ignored the parts I didn't like, the story was pretty good and not as boring as I thought it would be. If this author learned how to write women properly without making them look like objects, I'd give it four stars.
