Rating: Summary: Fantastic Sci Fi Variety Review: Jeffrey Redmond's "The Er-Dan Stories" is his follow up to the Chronicles of Er-Da series. In this book he has the same planet of Er-Da now colonized by earthlings. And oh my! what they do to that planet! If you think we've messed things up here on Earth, just wait til you read what we do to that planet.Redmond offers a wide variety of stories, with realistic and believable characters. He has them interact in bizarre ways with a wide variety of aliens and androids. There's wars, riots, and destruction. And right in the middle of the incredible mess there's games of golf and visits to a local library. The Er-Dan Stories offers everything for all tastes. There's love, hate, sex, romance, violence, murder, fun, adventure, humor, and everything else to make the colonists from Earth feel right at home. A thousand years in the future, in a distant part of the Galaxy, things are the same as here and now. Except, of course, for the all powerful control of The Imperium..... You will find this book a good enough read. There's something in it for everyone. Even if you're not really a sci fi fan, the stories are still entertaining, and even a little bit educational. The author explains that he wants to educate others most of all. Overall, despite the gory parts, I enjoyed the book. I just wonder where he got all those abnormal ideas from.

Rating: Summary: Far Out Sci Fi Review: This is a really wild and weird bit of sci fi stuff! It's definitely NOT for the average reader. There's every kind of android, robot, space alien, earth colonist, and situation you can imagine. Not at all for the squeemish. I started to read it, and couldn't put it down! It's especially good for those of us who are over 18. So if bizarre and totally out there type of science fiction appeals to your tastes.... this one's for you! (It certainly was for me). I loved it! Thanks. Linda.
