reviewed Black Easter by James Blish (After Such Knowledge, #3)

Feels fresh!

The novella is exactly what I wanted from such a thing. The radio segment goes well, nothing cartoonish. Do not recommend reading it back-to-back with the second part of the trilogy, as Blish gives too much of an exposition, spoiling the ending of the first.
