Wow! What a wild ride! What a galactic adventure! And what an improvement over book 1! I greatly enjoyed this novel. The pacing was great, the twists were all at the right places, the characters were more likeable... and I loved the ending. I can tell the impact that this book has had on sci fi of the following decades. I look forward to the next book.
