### ⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Kindle edition full of errors
  

*by Z***N on February 25, 2018*









  
  
    By now I’m sure most Kindle users know how to report content errors, so it’s entirely possible that Amazon will issue updates to make this edition more readable. But it’s still hugely distracting and disappointing to finally have these stories on my Kindle... in such a poor state.And while the story of the humans and mantas is still enjoyable after all this time, many things haven’t aged well. Aquilon is characterized exactly as male sci-fi writers from the ‘60s always characterize women. Cal delivers lectures that would be informative (though outdated) to a modern fifth-grader in a way that seems calculated to introduce audiences of the ‘60s to new concepts like continental drift. Much of the science has been superceded since publication. Gender dynamics are simplified and overplayed. Those little artifacts aren’t story-killers of course. But combined with the bad kindle adaptation, they make for a sometimes clunky read.The fact remains though, that Orn is a wonderful and interesting character concept. The mantas are some of the best and most original aliens in sci-fi. I’m looking forward to re-reading this whole series again when the content errors are corrected!

    Good book, but kindle version has a lot of typos and grammar problems
  

*by C***D on February 14, 2018*









  
  
    I've owned the paperback version of this book since 1972, and decided to buy a replacement on Kindle, but reading this version is painful, given the incredible number of spelling and grammar mistakes in this that weren't in the paperback. It almost looks like someone scanned and OCR'd a paper copy but never checked it for correctness. One typo replaced "agent" with "age;", the next page replaced "been" with "be...". Previous pages had missing words as well. I don't know who to contact about it, but I'd be happy to provide proofreading for them.When I first read the story I wasn't aware that it was part of a series. I saw references to the characters' previous adventure on Nacre but had no idea there was a previous novel nor what its name was. I've since corrected that, and have enjoyed the characters and how their stories have affected them. I highly recommend this whole trilogy, and even this middle book, as long as you can ignore the typos and grammar mistakes!
