Summary: Down to earth sf novel with people you want in your family
Review: Story of working class people trying to make a living and see the universe. The separations are one that many young couples can identify with. It's nice to have ordinary people in a novel who beleive in love and loyalty. Of course, cute aliens don't hurt. There are no great truths to learn in this novel, (but you should already know them) and it has few real suprises, but its a relaxing read after a long day in your corporate jungle.
