I was at a loss while reading the first part of this book, there was too much information about a Mormon world that I struggled to follow. The ending wraps things up nicely, but this book still leaves some unknowns unresolved. What is the origin of the Swenson apes?

ElPasmo reviewed Outies by Jennifer R. Pournelle (Moties, #3)
Not as good as the first two ones
3 stars

ElPasmo reviewed The gripping hand by Larry Niven (Moties, #2)
The sequel to Mote in Gods Eye, even better than it.
Not as good as the first one, but still good sci-fi
3 stars
A sequel to a great novel, this one takes a different approach by exploring another faction of the aliens. It’s no longer a naval-style story. I enjoyed this one less.

Great Sci-fi
5 stars
If you enjoy naval stories, this hard-core sci-fi novel is one of a kind. The way it immerses you in humanity’s first contact with a completely unknown alien race keeps you on edge, devouring every page.

Muy bien escrito
5 stars
Me lo he comido en un solo día, muy bien escrito, me ha sacado varias carcajadas con la forma tan divertida y didáctica de explicar diferentes situaciones.

La cotidianidad antes del abandono de los británicos de Jerusalem
4 stars
Content warning Alerta de spoiler
Un dibujo sencillo, una historia que se atisba imposible, como la de Romeo y Julieta pero que al final es posible gracias a que los protagonistas deciden huir de la barbarie y vivir su vida.
También trata de los que se quedan por sus convicciones religiosas y por conservar sus raíces y se embarcan en un conflicto que aún no ha acabado.
