UTISAK (summary) - interesantna ideja o problemima naseljavanja druge planete bez korišćenja naprednih tehnologija i sa preirodom koja se na kraju neizbežno prilagodi. Jedina mana je što je novela kratka, i što sam očekivao malo drugačiji "plot twist" pred kraj knjige.

Not my favorite hainish novel but still worth reading just because she's such a good writer.

it didn't grab me as much as the later Hainish cycle books do, but it was still a solid read. it's fun to compare these earlier books to the later ones - there's a world of difference between Planet of Exile and The Word for World is Forest for example.
