A review by sarahxsimon
Dragon's Egg by Robert L. Forward

fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Plot
• Strong character development? No
• Loveable characters? No
• Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated

Purposefully not rating this because it was so difficult to rate. I would love this book to be rewritten to 2025 sensibilities. This could be such a good book if the human crew had development, and the weird horny 80s sex stuff was cut. But the cheela are probably the most fascinating fictional alien species I’ve encountered.
