Very good, though are there really that many completely nutty gun owners in the US, and is so that's worrying!

Can't wait for the science to catch up with the fiction!

I am a fan of Arthur C Clarke but I found this disappointing. It started off ok but it became tedious in the middle, and I just lost interest.

Ahhh... it's like homecoming, reading a well-written and thought-provoking Sci-Fi story again! I actually finished this a couple months ago, but find myself returning to the premise of this story: What would happen if all guns and bombs were no longer functional? This is well written, covering the social, practical, and political issues such a development would bring.

It was a very good story told very well, but what else would I expect from these authors. The story did drag a bit in spots and was heavy on getting a message across, but for me it was a good message.
