Rating: Summary: Fuzzys Rule! Review: I first read the Fuzzy books a VERY long time ago, and enjoyed them greatly. I was overjoyed to find the Complete Fuzzy, and snapped it up. I have since gotten my MOTHER hooked on Little Fuzzy and his friends. She plans to buy a copy of the book for my daughter, as well, so we have 2 going on three generations of Fuzzy fans in THIS household!
Rating: Summary: How TERRIFIC!!! Review: I will be brief here: I write only to say that I've scoured used bookstores for years in search of the tiny volumes that were the original Fuzzy books since I first read them some six or seven years ago. I did find them eventually, but I'm delighted that readers young and old will have such easy access to these classic, engrossing, WONDERFUL tales. My order is in, for my old used copies are in storage, and the lure of revisiting the world of the Fuzzies is simply to irresistable to pass up! Long live the Fuzzies! Long live Piper!
Rating: Summary: Dear, sweet Gashta! Review: I've always adored the Gashta ever since I first picked up the story. Beautiful!

Rating: Summary: it's very interesting and funny Review: I've only read the first part so far and it is so cool! It's easy to get entangled in the story plot and isn't as confusing as most si-fi books.
Rating: Summary: LONG LIVE FUZZIES Review: It does my heart good to see so many people, young and old, falling in love with Piper's fantastic 'Fuzzy' novels. I have read and collected them for only a few years but have developed such a love for this man's work that it pains me when I ask for his books in used book stores and just get blank stares. Thank goodness for the internet!!!! There are dozens of sites devoted to H. Beam Piper all across the world, I now know I am not alone! Thank you all!!!!
Rating: Summary: A magnificient work of true art Review: The Fuzzy Trilogy is something rare; something like nothing I've read before. I first ran into the fuzzies many years ago, in a school library, but I never finished the first book. Years later, I recalled it, and began my search. I eventually found all of the fuzzy stories, and read them all through. They were wonderful, with good plots, characters that leaped off of the pages, strange animals, all set in a realistic and fairly earthlike world. A frontier world, though, riddled with high-tech machinery and mentionings of other worlds and fictional history, but mostly down-to-earth... or, in this case, the compelling, exiting and mysterious rugged world of Zarathustra. And, of course, there are the Fuzzies. Fuzzies are simple, straighforward characters, complex underneath but understandable. They creatures that have very rounded, symetric personalities that accept whatever comes to them with little complaint. And they never lie- hardly ever. What more can one ask from a book? -VMT
Rating: Summary: A sapient race is threatened by a planetary corporation. Review: They called themselves the Gashta, which in their language means "the people". When ol' Jack Holloway 'discovered' them, he gave them a new name - Fuzzies! They stood less than a meter tall had soft silky fur, intelligence and if Jack was right, were the first native life form on the planet Zarathustra to posess true sapience. This would be great news, except that Zarathustra was a company planet, chartered by the Terran Federation as a Class III uninhabited planet. If the Fuzzies were indeed sapient, the planet would be classified as a class IV inhabited planet and the Chartered Zarathustra Corporation would lose all claims to the planet , lock stock and barrel. H. Beam Piper's tale of Holloway's fight to save the Fuzzies was written nearly 40 years ago, yet its' warmth , humor and suspenseful moments will make fun reading for young and old alike. Rumour has it that a screenplay is currently in the works to faithfully bring the Fuzzy adventures to the silver screen. Get your copy now before the pre-screening rush puts it out of print.
Rating: Summary: I think this was an adult book but I am 13 and loved it! Review: This was my favorite book it had great things that relate to our lives but take place in the future so it is a unbelieveablely exciting an absobing book. I recomend this book to teens as well as abults. It is also funny and makes you laugh. I'll tell you about the first book in the series, Jack Hollaway a miner discovers a small animal one meter high with big cute eyes and soft golden fur. no one has ever seen one of these animls so Jack calls it a fuzzy. But a cute monkey type creature is not all this fuzzy is, Jack thinks this crature might be sapient or self aware. And when more fuzzies show up and one of them is killed by a cruel scientist, Jack has to prove that the fuzzies are sapient so the man will get his just punishment.
