Contact Window deals with the mission talked about in The Return, as readers get to see the events referenced in that story, play out. Well-written and fairly involving, I enjoyed it, but I liked the ending somewhat less than Perry’s prequel/sequel short story set in this same world, and inexorably connected to this story. Perhaps if I hadn’t read The Return first, I might not have found the ending to this story — and mission — just a tad disappointing, or perhaps anti-climatic.
One positive here in Contact Window, as in Perry’s story, we see fully a sense of arrogance underscoring the outwardly noble endeavor to reach out to the stars. In both Perry’s story and Swardstrom’s, it backfires, but for the species doing the contacting, or the species being contacted, I can’t say.
Short and involving, this one is also recommended for quasi-science fiction fans who just want a morsel, and not a nine course meal.… (altro)
