Siege of Earth is a pulp SF novelette through and through. While clearly inspired by older Golden Age SF, Siege of Earth has little in the area of character development and a lot to be asked for concerning the general setting of the story. Faucette opens the book right to the point, and details each battle in extreme detail, and every loss in blunt brevity, making the emotional passages appear as simple afterthoughts.

If you're looking for a quick, pulpy and easy read with little "active reading" involved, this may be for you.… (plus d'informations)

A grand, sweeping SF novel of the sort seldom seen. Yes, it is a short novel, but it dispenses with fluff and padding to give the reader an intense vision of a humanity as it rises from all-but-extinction. There is grand adventure, plus a dollop of thoughtfulness. One of the few novels that I re-read every few years.
