rgombert 's review for:

The Humanoids by Jack Williamson
3.0

I picked up this book to read on my way to the 2011 Jack Williamson Lectureship (35th year).

This is frequently referred to as a Classic of Science Fiction and one of Mr. Williamson's most recommended books.

I found it to be very enjoyable. The plot was good, the story was well written and moved at a good pace. The story was not too long (about 200 pages).

I do think that many newer/younger readers might have difficulty reading it. Mr. Williamson uses the tern "rhodomagnetic" and that has fallen out of use in the years since publication.
