Oops I waited too long to write this review. Let‰ЫЄs see what I can dig up from my brain...

I am glad to have finally read this book because it is referred to so frequently by authors I follow, and because I want to see the movie when it releases (eventually? #covid). I definitely get the sense that this would have been completely ground-breaking when it was written, and absolutely paved the way for modern science fiction. However, there were times that the story seemed to drag on way too long, and of course I can‰ЫЄt go without mentioning the homosexual, fat villain. An unfortunately trope we‰ЫЄve only recently escaped from. However, the rest of the novel was mostly enjoyable and definitely interesting.
