Summary: Rammer is A World Out Of Time
Review: Call it "Rammer" or call it "A World Out Of Time", regardless of the title of the book it is a MUST READ for any Larry Niven fan. Do not expect to see any of the "Tales From Known Space" or even any of the wonderful creatures that populate Larry's universe. But you will be spellbound by this alternate vision of Earth seen through the eyes of Jerome Corbell. "Revived" after 200 hundred years after being frozen to prevent death from cancer. Watch "JayBee" cope in a world beyond his worst nightmares. Imagine the prospect of being "mind wiped" if you make a mistake. This is just the start of a strange journey covering space and time for Jaybee Corbell - corpsicle.

It is an excellent and captivating story, and possably a warning as our technology is fast approaching this stage. To wake up in a world that is a police state, rebel, and possably find a version of the fountain of youth.

Summary: Is that all?
Review: This is a very short book. Well book on tape. If your a fan of Larry Niven and you have read A WORLD OUT OF TIME then don't even bother. This is basically the short story that Niven grew into the full book. The reader is quite good but a little too on edge at times and seems prone to giving random inflections to any old word. If your a Niven fan, pick it up. Too bad it's so short. An entire reading of A world out of time could have been fun.
