I was amazed and honored that he read and blurbed my novel:

"A fun, sometimes cleverly-gonzo, and even inspiring tale about an undaunted girl's close encounter of the weird kind." -- David Brin

As most everybody here knows, especially since he's listed as a famous author on this site, Mr. Brin is an American scientist and author of science fiction. He has received the Hugo, Locus, Campbell and Nebula Awards. His novel, The Postman, was adapted as a feature film and starred Kevin Costner in 1997.

That?s fantastic, Robert! Getting a blurb from David Brin must be such a rewarding moment. I can only imagine how it feels to have someone with his experience and recognition in sci-fi give your work a nod. I?ve always enjoyed his work too, especially The Postman, so it?s great to see your novel getting the attention it deserves. It sounds like you?ve really got something special with Rarity from the Hollow.
