Book Reviews of Time of the Great Freeze

Book Review: A Great Introduction to Silverberg
Summary: 4 Stars

In 1979 I was given a book report assignment. Having not been much of a reader, I went aimlessly looking through my school library for a book with a cool picture on it. It must have been fate that put this book in my path. Twenty years and over fifty Silverberg books later, I credit it for showing me the possibilities that exist in science fiction.

The book is written on a fifth or sixth grade level and is chock-full of adventure and intrigue. (I remember staying up late at night just to read as much as I could!) It tells the story of an underground city which submerged to live through a world-wide glacial event. Seven men make radio contact with another city and are expelled as this is against the law. The men must make their way across the ice covered land to find shelter in another underground city. But they find that there is much more than just ice going on in the world.

I loved this book and would reccomend it to anyone (especially children) who want to become science fiction readers or just readers in general.
