Reviews About Witches Of Karres (Paperback)

Its a review about this product

Witches of Karres (Hardcover) This book is one of my all-time favorite space operas. I have read and reread it many, many times, wearing out serveral paperbacks.
The science of the story is unscientific (to put it mildly), but the book is a space opera, not science fiction.
Good versus evil, David versus Goliath; it has all of this, but it has more. Akin to the Xanth novels and the Myth novels it adds the tone of bewilderment. The hero never knows exactly what he is doing.
This draws the reader into closer empathy with Captain Pausert.
The author has demonstrated with his other works that he can write a true science fiction novel, so I feel that the unscientific, but delightful character of this novel was completely intended.
It is really unfortunate it remains in the "out of print", and "hard to find" catagory.
About 25 years ago I had a book dealer find me an original hardback first edition of this book. I treasure it, and frequently reread my well preserved paperback.
I hope these reviews of an unavailable book will encourage publishers to reissue the book before my copies wear out completely.
