Why read it?
1 author picked The Descent of Anansi as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
A near-future space thriller, about a revolution by an orbital space colony against the governments of Earth that seek to keep it under their control, is a fast-moving blend of action, politics, and speculation. Read this and see the sort of vision of humanity’s future in space that captivated people’s imaginations at the dawn of the Space Shuttle era.
From Allen's list on lost classics of space science fiction.
If you love The Descent of Anansi...
Unreachable Skies
This book (and its sequels) are about overcoming the odds; about learning to improve the skills and abilities you have, rather than dwelling on what you can't do. Conflict, plague, and scheming politicians are all featured along the way–but none of the characters are human!
