The Bottom Line: If they were all like this one, I could read science fiction all day long!
Review: In Earth's past, Australia was effectively a prison colony, a place for transportation of convicted felons to get them out of sight and out of mind, a place where misfits, recluses and hard-nosed independents could live or die on the strength of...
