Summary: a magical dream
Review: For anyone that has a love of space and Earth itself, this a dream come true to read. The storyline is truly compelling, and the philosophies are enlightening. I was 15 when I first read this book, and was so touched by it that I was dreaming about it at night, and began looking up any organizations that were trying to achieve something like "TopStep". A great book, anytime.

Summary: I really injoyed this book!
Review: I have never read Stardance so I am not comparing it to Starseed. I really injoyed this book. I couldnt keep it down. Im an avid book reader and this one is now one of my faviorits! I loved the way that the author told the story as if she were Morgan McLeod. I liked the use of zen in the book it was intresting to find out more about another cluture while reading an intresting book. I am really looking foward to reading Stardance now.

Summary: Decent sequel to Stardancer.
Review: I'd been a big fan of Stardancer/Starseed as a young teenager, so I was curious and picked the book up again now. Unfortunatly, it doesn't hold up all that well over time. The plot is okay, and a lot of the book is well written.

Where it falls down is the pacing (weirdly way too fast in some places) and some pretty serious plot inconsistencies. I got the feeling (fair or not) that the Robinsons wrote this book too quickly and without leaving themselves enough time to finish it properly.

A dancer joins a foundation designed to help people become symbiotic stardancers, but becomes embroiled in a plot to destroy the stardancers entirely.

Summary: NOT VERY INTERESTING
Review: IT COULD HAVE BEEN A GOOD BOOK WITH A LOT MORE IMAGINATION PUT INTO IT.....IT'S JUST SO....BORING.

Summary: OK Sequel to Stardancer
Review: This sequel to Stardancer was pretty good and since I was in a stardance frame of mind, I enjoyed it. There was a little too much gratuitous sex and the murder mystery part could have happened earlier in the book. However, the concept of earthlings being jealous of another "freer" species rings very true, sociologically. And we all know that when the earthling "boys" get jealous, they try to DESTROY whatever they can't have. So it seemed pretty realistic (and I like sociological sci-fi.).
