Buddy Holly is Alive and Well on Ganymede

1991Bradley Denton

3.9/5

It doesn't have quite the same rocking energy that his first novel, Wrack and Roll, contained, but this is a very well written good book in the semi-quirky tradition of Rudy Rucker and the best of Avram Davidson. The characterization is especially well-drawn, and the plot, while a little hard to completely buy all the way, is fast-paced and entertaining. A good bet for a list of the best thinking-person's intellectual science fiction novels of the decade of the '90s, when the field was expanding in all directions without a particular destination in mind. (And we're probably lucky that such a list doesn't exist.)
