What a remarkable book! Such a joy to read--at once a story of adventure and exploration, and the exploration of an extraordinary man and his life. The most marvelous part of it is it is written, and very well indeed, from the perspective of somebody who knew him well. Tom Slick took science to the edge and a little beyond, and did it brilliantly. Tom Slick: Explorer and Visionary honors his effort, also brilliantly. --Whitley Strieber, best-selling author of Warday, Communion, and, most recently, A New World.--Whitley Strieber
