Review of 'Podkayne of Mars' on 'Goodreads'

2 stars

The less-than-stellar reviews on goodreads do not lie. RAH created an interesting world, and then in the last quarter of the book used it as a podium to talk about women caring for babies and simpering to men. Almost as if the book was written in two sittings, the latter from a much older and grumpier man.
