One of his best works

So you can describe most likely short this book well. The atmosphere of the book adheres a certain "sterility" of, to whom I am used to it over time and I have learned to love. What surprised me most was the characterization of the protagonist and his wife. The characterization I have never felt in earlier works of the author so. Of particular note is probably the highlight of the book in the middle (Interlude), but should not be expected that now decreases the quality, no it remains equally good. Only the scenario changed a bit for some time. Know are connoisseurs of the book what I mean, everyone else must be said: Lehst dieseses book! Do you like Charles Sheffield, then you will love this book. Too bad that it is so far not to get in German.
