Entertainment Weekly has published the latest of their brief, monthly roundup of recent sf books reviewed by Noah Robischon. To wit:

• CAMOUFLAGE by Joe Haldeman
  
  • Grade: B+
  
  
  • Lowdown: Haldeman trips through history wearing alien goggles, but his message is all about human nature.


• EDENBORN by Nick Sagan
  
  • Grade: B
  
  
  • Lowdown: Long on mythological references and a bit short on believability, Edenborn presents a microbial apocalypse worth living through.


• LIGHT by M. John Harrison
  
  
  
  • Grade: A
  
  
  • Lowdown: First released to raves in the U.K. in 2002, Light is mind-bending in both its conceptual framework and literary deftness.


• NEUROLINK by M. M. Buckner
  
  • Grade: A-
  
  
  • Lowdown: Dante's Inferno goes cyberpunk in Buckner's toxic future tale of working-class bravado.
