Although I found this book entertaining it felt as if the science fiction elements were tacked on. This is more like a story about deepest, darkest Africa from the late Nineteenth or early Twentieth Century than a science fiction novel. Everything from the characters’ beliefs and perceptions to the colonial mindset of the government remind me of those in a Tarzan novel.
This isn’t necessarily a bad thing and the book is an enjoyable, light read. It may leave speculative fiction fans cold though because it really doesn’t stretch the imagination or provoke serious thought.
