Media Reviews
there will never get another Douglas Adams but Benn, combining his stand-up comedy talent with his obvious love for the genre, might be the closet you'll ever get The Independent Benn's warm but sharp narrative voice, which made Terra such fun to read, rings through loud and clear in this sequel, as does the continuing (and welcome) influence of writers like Neil Gaiman and Douglas Adams, and a real love of the sci-fi genre in general Sci-Fi Now Terra's World ups the stakes while still keeping everything that made the first novel so special SFF World With warm and accessible writing, Mitch Benn has once again surpassed all expectations. Terra's World feels like a love letter to science fiction literature and his razor sharp wit delights. And it's damn funny. A truly excellent sequel. Upcoming 4 Me
