Reviews
"Forward's book is a knockout. In science fiction there is only a handful of books that stretch the mind--and this is one of them!" --ARTHUR C. CLARKE "Bob Forward writes in the tradition of Hal Clement's Mission Gravity and carries it a giant step (how else?) forward." --ISAAC ASIMOV "Dragon's Egg is superb. I couldn't have written it; it required too much real physics." --LARRY NIVEN "This is one for the real science-fiction fan." --FRANK HERBERT "Robert L. Forward tells a good story and asks a profound question. If we run into a race of creatures who live a hundred years while we live an hour, what can they say to us or we to them?" --FREEMAN J. DYSON    Author of Disturbing the Universe "Forward has impeccable scientific credentials, and . . . big, original, speculative ideas." --The Washington Post From the Trade Paperback edition.

  • One of THE best SF novels I've ever read. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I read this years ago and am glad I found it again. Forward pushes the limits of imagination with this one -microscopic beings on a planet with EXTREME gravity. who are incredibly advanced technologically. Glad I found it again. Dave

  • Great hard science fiction

    Great science fiction in the future. Earth develops far enough to send a research team to a neutron star and discovers it is inhabited. A mutual exchange of values develops to help both civilizations. Unlike most stories where one party takes advantage of the other and result in war, in this story both civilization benefit from the contact.
