Quality


The humor , tension, scientific knowledge explained for a layman made an outstanding book.


Beautifully written space saga full of tension, excitement, science and humanity.


A terrible windstorm has damaged the base and the crew is trying to leave the planet.


The dust cover got creased and crumpled on the corners with some deep scratches on the front.

Shipping


I spent extra to get a hardcover over a paper back and when my package arrived the book itself wasn’t secured for shipping in any way.

Packaging/appearance


There was no packing material to keep the book from getting damaged in shipping.


I just wish my premium hardcover copy came in better condition.
