Ladies and gentlemen, a wonderful show is about to begin!

I almost read it in one sitting. The plot is fascinating and empowering. The descriptions in many details are inspiring. The plot is very interesting, no spoilers, this is the best book I have read recently. It's better than Game of Thrones and not as long. I think I found my true love type, interesting books of this length
Still a pretty good book
The story is amazing. It looks at the fictional world from an actor's perspective. Although the setting of Martians and spaceships seems outdated, considering the background of the times, it can be said that this was a good work for people at that time. The article not only reflects science fiction, but also discusses literature, values, and outlook on life. Taking the Martians' rule-abiding example as an example, it expresses that civilizations in the universe may have different views from humans, or even very different. It also expresses the author's personal view that if humans want to expand, they should maintain an equal relationship with other civilizations. The author also expressed his belief that there is a universal emotion in the universe that can connect each other. For these points, the author has laid the groundwork through the article, rather than mentioning them in one sentence. For these reasons I think this book is worth reading and pondering carefully.
A book that makes people unable to put down their mobile phones
The humor and the metaphors, I would say every one of them are very subtle, except that the later plot advances a little too fast. If a detailed description of victory in the battle against evil forces was included, it would be a 95-point work. It can currently be rated 90 points, it is really exciting. The rhythm is tight. Of course, this is not pure science fiction? Never mind him! This is a great book!
It's okay, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay, my wife
