liv: Bookshelf labelled: Caution. Hungry bookworm (bookies)
Author: Olaf Stapledon

Details: (c) 1937 Methuen; Pub Penguin Books 1972; ISBN 0-1400-3541-9

Verdict: Star Maker is a very interesting mix of spiritual insight with SF. Quite unlike anything else I've read.

Reasons for reading it: I read Last and First Men on [livejournal.com profile] lethargic_man's recommendation, and it prompted some interesting discussion, during the course of which Star Maker was mentioned, and it sounded intriguing.

How it came into my hands: [livejournal.com profile] lethargic_man lent it to me.

Soundbite

Miscellaneous. Eclectic. Random. Perhaps markedly literate, or at least suffering from the compulsion to read any text that presents itself, including cereal boxes.
