Les Johnson & Ken Roy About A Traveler's Guide to the Stars by Les Johnson: "We effortlessly travel round and round our sun, and we wonder: How hard would it be, really, to travel to another star? Les Johnson shows us the rocket science we'd need; that's easy enough. But then he describes with wonderful detail the Starshot nanocrafts, chipsats, Starwisps, worldships, and metamaterial LightSails that we might use. It's a flight of imagination backed up with real out-of-this-world science." --Bill Nye "Les Johnson is that rare breed of writer who can make rocket science comprehensible even to the layperson. He has more than paid his dues in the field, and his enthusiasm for the cause of interstellar exploration shines through. But so does his sense of humor, his humanity, and his zest for life. This is highly recommended stuff." --David Weber "Is humanity ready to take on the immensities outside our solar system? This traveler's guide lays out methods and means that may enable our first steps into the great unknown beyond the sun's familiar campfire." --David Brin About Mission to Methone: "The spirit of Arthur C. Clarke and his contemporaries is alive and well in Johnson's old-fashioned first-contact novel, set in 2068. . . . There's a great deal here for fans of early hard SF." --Publishers Weekly About The Spacetime War: "Johnson, a NASA physicist, brings verisimilitude and scientific accuracy to this adventure, and his passion for the details of space travel will undoubtedly please readers looking for old-school hard science fiction. His narrative enjoys a slow-building sense of development as he gradually unravels multiple mysteries . . . Johnson's fans will find plenty to enjoy." --Publishers Weekly
