Anyone read Nick Sagan?
I never knew Carl Sagan's son wrote science fiction. I ordered a couple of his books, because I loved his father's. What can I expect?

6. Wow, I never knew that, either.
Pop could sure write some comedy.

2. So-so.
I enjoyed his work, for the most part. There are some things that bugged me- like when he starts a really interesting plot line and never finishes it- but it isn't horrible or anything.

4. Thanks.
I got one of them for 1 cent on amazon, plus the shipping, so I figure I would only loose 3 bucks if I don't like it.

:)

3. It's okay.
He can't touch his father, but worth a read anyway.

5. I love his father's writing.
Skeptical, but full of wonder.

10. So sad he is gone.
He would be writing some serious books about this shitbird administration.

12. He would be screaming from the mountaintops for stem cell research.
And about the administration's crony "fox in the henhouse" appointments.

There aren't enough voices challenging them on this.
