On the need for the writer to have a hide like a rhino The reviewer at Challenging Destiny did not like TP. Putting up a link seems an exercise in masochism, but it's easily enough found. Unfortunately, it's not the kind of review the writer can learn much from, because his issue was with fundamentals, our "feudal society in space" and the story we chose to tell. It just didn't work for him, and after a fair summary of the book, he said so. Not much one can do with that but listen respectfully and stand by the society we built and the story itself; if we didn't believe in it ourselves, we wouldn't have written it.
