From the Publisher
This is thirteenth book in the "NESFA's Choice" series and the last in a set of three volumes bringing back into print the best works of Hall Clement--the Exemplar of Hard SF Writers.
From Booklist
The third volume of the New England Science Fiction Association's Hal Clement reprint series is the most important yet because it includes two of Clement's Mesklin novels, Mission of Gravity (1954) and Star Light (1971), both long out of print. Dealing with relations between Barlinan, a ship captain from a world that has 800 gravities at the pole (i.e., things are very, very heavy there) and rotates in 18 minutes, and human explorers, the books are foundation stones of hard-science sf. Besides the novels, the collection includes Clement's article on the scientific basis of Mesklin, three short stories, and three original critical essays, on whose merits readers can make up their own minds. But have no doubt that Clement's own writing in the volume constitutes an essential acquisition for good sf collections. Roland Green
