Location: UK		Im about a quarter way through Forgotten Planet just now,and some of the premises were a bit annoying to say the least!. Many generations have passed since a space ship was stranded on a planet full of massive dangerous insects. The people are savages,and dont even know what a weapon is,living precariously by scavenging. They have almost lost the use of language,having only a ''few hundred labials''. No characterisation,just battles with insects that are not very engaging. All in all a bit lacklustre. Not as much fun as other Murray Leinsters I have read.
