Excellent, much better than anticipated
It is difficult to reconcile that this story is more than 30 years old as sci-fi has more difficulties than most works of fiction of not aging well. But a good story, simply told has a timeless quality.
The only quibble that I could have is the narrator at times can be a bit monotonous but never in a way that removes enjoyment of the story line.

A surprisingly good story, it just gets better and better
This review is based on Audible’s recording.
Gradually, as I listened to more and more of this novel, my opinion of it rose. It really is very good, maybe even almost as good as Ender’s Game. Written in the first person, what begins as a fairly banal sci-fi space opera set in a somewhat fantastical world deepens and matures. All is not as it seems, with twist after twist until the end, and the story ultimately becomes the journey of one man to adulthood and self-understanding. A fascinating and pleasant tale.

Weird but compelling.
One of the most oddly compelling books I've had, ever. Well written and narrated, and leaves me with a well, strange feeling about it!

Classic sci fi
Classic sci fi in the vein of Asimov and Heinlein. A story about the human condition rather than a space opera

A challenging story
I first read this book as a teenager but found the story much more challenging as an adult. The story itself is excellent but I find some of its aspects troubling. At what point do the ends justify the means?

Unlistenable Nonsense
Tried to persevere and give this the benefit of the doubt as I'm a big fantasy and sci-fi fan. However, you can save yourself the effort. It's akin to self-published, unedited fan-fiction of the lowest order. And the reader's attempts at accents? Don't get me started...
Avoid.

Weird and odd
Just an weird story, I had a really hard time finishing this book.
There’s no deeper story, no meaning. Just weird.
Four hours in I thought “yes! Now it begins to get good. And the plot thickens…” it didn’t.. not for me.
