From the Author
Author provides more review quotations
Greeting, readers. Thank you for taking a look at OUTPOST.
Here are a few more review quotations.
"...the novel's strength lies in its characters...a moving...stirring image of humans battling for life and freedom..." PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
"...absolutely classic...[a plot of] stunning ingenuity..." Spider Robsinson, in THE GLOBE AND MAIL
"...a pretty effective and often intense novel...revelations, as they unfold, are both ingenious and satisfying, and Felicitas turns out to be a complex and winning heroine...OUTPOST wins you over...because of the intensity and texture of its setting, the sheer doggedness of its characters, and the intricate back-story involving genetic engineering, warfare among aliens, and Renaissance history. Mackay delivers on the surprises when he needs to...and writes with impressive grace and clarity. His vision is original..." LOCUS MAGAZINE
With best wishes for a good read,
Scott Mackay, 10 March 1998
