I re-read it in 2008. It was just as great a read as I remembered at age 12.<br>
Friday, SISL, TMIAHM and some of his other books are still great too, BTW.<br>
Throwing rocks - I love it.<br>
<br>
For a more current hard-sci-fi author, KSR's Red Mars series is pretty great.<br>
HIGHLY recommended.<br>
