I just finished the story and it was great. Although I said your other books were great reads, this is your best yet. I liked the sub-plot involving the metal grid around the android planet and the problems attacking it. Once again I am amazed how you write so much detail into your character conversations and come up with problems within the story to be solved. The whole idea of the populace migration from Andromanus from the other side of the "Great Void" to this side was imaginative. You did a good job writing Old Bill's dialog. Coming from the state of New York, I don't know how you managed his way of speaking. It was a very good story and I enjoyed reading it. Congratulations! Wade S. Jacksonville, TX
