A Lucky Find!!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
Star Watchman was the second book that Ben Bova wrote and showed his future promise. This book has politics, action, and a lead character who, although he has doubts and fears, tackles his problems directly and with gusto. Ben Bova seems not to like this book or his first book Star Conquerors (which I have never been able to find, but would love to read.). Sure they are not up to the level of his later books, but then few first or second books are as the author is just learning his craft. But the book is a good read. Holding your interest and making you care for the characters. This book was one of the first I read and was directly responsible for my life-long love of science-fiction. In fact, I am disappointed that Mr. Bova did not continue on with this character. Overall a very injoyable book.
