Very good but very "quiet" reading

+ ODD BUT FRIGHTENINGLY ENJOYABLE!!!
+ An engaging read, even though it's light on the SF

Written as a memoir, much of this book takes place in 19th Century America. Rosa Coleman was a part of high society in Philadelphia.

St Martins Pr, 1976

One of the best Haldeman books

+ Quick, enjoyable read
+ Well-written, exciting book. Not perfect.

Haldeman has a dedicated following for a reason, one of the big reasons is this book. I read Mindbridge after reading Worlds and Worlds Apart. Since then I've read most of Haldman's novels. My favorites are easily, Forever Peace, Forever War, Mindbridge, and Worlds Apart. This is a great place ...

If you like alternate Time-lines...

+ Not his best, but worth a read

... You should read this book. John Baird, a Hemmingway scholar in something of a bind, agrees to produce a forgery of a "lost" work of the great master. Since this would radically change his earth's future, a sort of inter-dimensional hitman is dispatched to kill him. Which he does. Sort of. ...

Roc, 1993

First Rate Short Story Collection

+ One of the best SF Short story collections I've ever read
+ You will not put it down.

Joe Haldeman is an excellent short story writer, as he proves in "Dealing in Futures." The book opens with the chilling novella "Seasons," about an outer space anthropological study gone horribly wrong. Another lengthy item is "You Can Never Go Back," which was originally intended to be the ...

This book starts off sad, goes uplifting for a while then goes sad again. The end of the story is quite the shocker.

+ Not Free SF Reader
+ Haldeman's First Short Story Collection

Of the three collections by Haldeman that I've read, I'd have to put this after None So Blind, but before Dealing In Futures, even though I gave them all 4's. It contains a good number of stories, and as always, the first entry is excellent. Two of the reasons I love Haldeman's work are evident ...

Ace Hardcover, 2007

Interest read with weak ending

This is a fine piece of fiction work on the topic of time travel, it touches all the interesting aspects involved, even though the actual travelling is mostly forward. The author used the forwarding time travel to trace the evolution steps of human society, some of them are interesting. However ...

Joe Haldeman

William Morrow & Co, 1987

A favorite fantasy - done in a reasonably moral way

+ Great spy book with a nice sci-fi twist
+ How to save the world with a trick watch

Ever daydream you can control other peoples minds? Well, this isn't a porn story! (grin) It's a fast paced delightful action thriller. Would make a very entertaining movie.... oh well, sad that it's out of print.
