Column Out Of Books The Survivors (Ragnarok #1)

Space Prison is a interesting and riveting story. I thought it was a very intriguing, gritty, and sad story.It begins with sadness and finally ends with hope. Its a story about the fall of pride, and a people that rise out of the ashes. Well done.

Long oddsA good yarn of the human will to survive. Love the prowlers and the unicorns. Good old fashioned pulp sci fi.

Ohhhhh.... so it's a metaphorical "space prison." Gotcha. Considering that the plot revolves around a society of castoffs who were left behind on a barren planet after their world was taken over and, the original title, "Survivors," makes a whole lot more sense. Whatever you want to call us, this was a satisfying, pulpy read. I liked it enough to check out the sequel.

Tom Godwin's "Space Prison" (originally named "The Survivors") was an enjoyable read, but far from a masterpiece. As said before by many others, it is almost impossible to come to like any of the characters. They show up for a chapter or two, then quickly die off, replaced by their descendants. I understand that Godwin couldn't focus too much on characters, as he is writing over a span of two hundred years, but a character who gets more than a few paragraphs would have been nice.

For it's time The book with all of its campy pulp science fiction it end beautifully and poetically"When a race has been condemned to die by another race and it fights and struggles and manages somehow to survive, it learns a lesson. It learns it must never again let the other race be in position to destroy it.I loved it!

This is an excellent parody of imperial 1950s space opera. It was not written as a parody, so its 5 stars as a parody average with 1 star as a serious novel to get 3 stars. I did enjoy it a lot, largely due to the nostalgia factor: this was one of the first dozen SF novels I read, about 50 years ago.

Brilliant story and my first foray into the Tom Godwin books. The story pulls you into the massive world that could be and I would love to hear more about it and the universe that is teased at. Sadly Tom Godwin isn't with us and the only sequel to this book is apparently not worth it, but it won't stop you from thinking of what it could have been and what if it happened.
