Walkers on the Sky | 
so-so(1976) The world has three levels: a Netherworld thick with flora, fauna and dense atmosphere; a Middle World positioned on a force-field stretched across the sky; and an Upper World where gods live. Sig is a young man of the Middle World who is captured by slavers, then descends to the Netherworld just as the slavers plan to raid it for slaves and plunder. The world-building is fun but the characters are weak and the sensibilities are very 1970s
DocBrown 1970s sci-fi. Does it get any better? 3mo
swynn @DocBrown Yes. It definitely gets better than 1970s sci fi. But the thing that 1970s sci fi is ... It never gets more that. 3mo
