Review of 'The Terraformers' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

An absorbing book about terraforming, ecology, and various interactions between living beings. The suspense has a U-shape, as the middle part drags a bit.
Otherwise, a wonderful book with interesting thoughts and perspectives.
Thank you for this refreshing sci-fi adventure.
