I definitely started recalling the White Sky scenario when reading this post.
And a great book in general.
Eh, I thought the last third was a letdown.
I agree. I still enjoyed the book though.
It probably is. Where Spin connects with the posting is more on what the planet does after the satellites fall and new industries for balloons, etc, form. I was on the fence about whether I should mention that or whether it is revealing.
Yeah, that was a great read even though it's not quite the same scenario :-)
That does seem like an entertaining read; thanks for the recommendation.
