I have never been a big fan of Stephen Baxter, but I cant think of any reason to dislike him either. Thus, I was pleasantly surprised when I read his 2004 novella, Mayflower II. For those of you familiar with Baxter's work, you will recognize elements of his Xeelee sequence, particularly references to Michael Poole from, I am told, Transcendent. Based on the strength of this novella, I am certain I will seek out and purchase more Baxter works.<\/p>\n
