He Walked Among Us

Rating:
Summary: Hot and not so hot
Review: I've been a big fan of Norman's since I read the Void Captain's Tale many years ago. I'll read anything he writes; along with Gene Wolfe, Neal Stephenson and William Gibson, I find Spinrad's books richly rewarding journeys. "He Walked Among Us" is a paradox. Poking through a well-knit, moving and necessary tale are moments of self-pity, personal frustration and put-downs of the very audience which he writes to. Hopefully, he'll be able to more fully immerse himself into his next literary effort...Spinrad is truly one of the best writers (writers, not SciFi writers) out there.
