I revisit this great book every 2 or 3 years, its written by a master of letters, who devoted a life time to writing and was a sci-fi critic for years in Australia. Completely on top of his skills, in his 70's when he penned this, you are in the hands of a master, its a delicious story, told by believable characters, in an exotic local, the character development is on par with the best. Such a cool plot, and well thought out, quite within the realm of possibility now with the good old Crisper enzyme.
