Lines: 13 From: Dave Godwin James Tiptree II and Andre Norton both write very strong female characters, do they ? Not surprising. They're both women. Just bought and read Brin's 'Postman'. I'll reserve discussion of the book until more have read it. I will state that it is a very good story, not as good as Startide Rising, but real good. Has anybody gotten to the new Heinlein or Hogan books yet ? Dave
