Review of 'Beginning operations' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

I have read all these individually, many years ago. I remember very much enjoying the opening set of stories. I found it harder to picture the aliens in the latter set of works, which detracted some. But I enjoy the style of writing a great deal. I don’t quite remember it being so sexist, either – all the high-ups are male and females are just good for nursing or horseplay. But I suppose that’s a more of the time.
