I rarely re-read books, but this one was so good I read it twice. The second time, it was still very good, but his interstellar internet is really ridiculously similar to our internet, and seemed slightly dated. Quite unlikely... Still, good story, very original aliens, quite enjoyable.

The book flows as two stories, which remain separate until nearly the very end. One details the survival story of two children, the only survivors of a spaceship crash, and the alien race that rescues them. The other is a tale of the battle to defeat a huge malevolent presence menacing the entire universe.

This is a 600+ pager- and I was sorry when it ended. A good, solid, old-fashioned Sci-Fi tale with nasty critters and some nasty people. Kids are the main characters as well as the heroes. A good read.

Very interesting sci-fi. It's a mix of advanced races and medievel worlds. It starts off a little difficult, but quickly gets very interesting.
