    About this ebook

    Marooned on a lost planet at the edge of Space. Their only companions? A howling army of screaming, crazed women.

    Captain Marrus Rond and his command staff were castaways, and the Starship Persephone was in the hands of the mutineers. Abandoned on an unknown planet, the ship’s deposed officers moved slowly through the depths of a dark, twisted alien forest, seeking food and shelterand some way home.

    What they found was beyond their imagination.

    “To read Mutiny in Space today is like having a window into the past.”
    Michael Swanwick

      Books like this are largely responsible for giving SF the checkered reputation it has. The characters are bland, the hero is one-dimensional, the setting is standard, yet unlikely: modern technical mankind on a planet with mediaeval leanings. Good people versus bad people. The good fellows win, the bad are destroyed. Not even the native ''primitive'' warrior women are portrayed with anything above sheer routine. The plot is non-existant. Far below par on all levels...

      Mutiny takes the internal fight of the crew to a planet full of warrior women and tiny men. While the plot had promise, it was quickly smashed by sheer boredom. I gave it one star for nifty cover art
    • 2/5
      Davidson wrote many novels and dozens of short stories. He won SF and Fantasy awards though mostly for his shorter works. This was not one of his better books.
