Moon Flower
by James P. Hogan

There's Something About Cyrene . . .

Two development teams have utterly vanished planet-side.  A third is on the way to set things back on track.  But ruthless mercenary "facilitator" Myles Callen and his crew are in for a surprise—for they about to encounter a  planet as magnificently strange as the vast alien artifacts of Arthur C. Clarke or Stanislaw Lem's sentient oceans.  And behind it all a new physical law so unexpected and fundamental that it may change the universe forever!

New York Times best-seller James P. Hogan delivers another stunningly visionary tale in the grandest tradition of SF!

"Readers who like their science hard will find this one a diamond."
Publishers Weekly on James P. Hogan's Mission to Minerva.

Not a bad book, too bad the author doesn't have any clue when it comes to economics... the "nuts game" simulates the government, not the market. There's nobody in the market that gives you stuff for free :) There is, however, someone (that is, the market) that adds more capital if the government refrains from taxing all of it. I loved Kicking the Sacred cow, this is far below that level.

I like the hard SF that Hogan generally has fun with, using known or disillusioned science as a basis to create a story, but this one falls far below the fun of other stories. The beginning took forever, and the end was predictable. A bad combination for any book, especially sci-fi. Basically this is a story about a flower that and an ecology that doesn't promote greed. It's nice that Hogan isn't the militant God hater he used to be, still his evolutionary ideals are a world in which some outside force makes people be good, for the benefit of everyone. He continues to play with the 'bowl of nuts' game, without realizing that the only reason everybody truly goes after everything that they are told the point of the game is to take all they can. If people are told a game's objective is to take all they can, then that is exactly what they will do, because you've just defined the goal of the game. Perhaps the game needs a different goal. And so in this story Hogan builds a world where the goal is different. Please, Mr. Hogan, go back to hard SF, and lay off the social commentary for a while.
