COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Mrs P goes to Switzerland submitted by camelsamba on June 30, 2016, 9:44pm I am bothered in this tale by the casual regard for the plutonium. Mrs P is warned not to touch it unless she is wearing gloves (e.g. surgical gloves). Really? That would be enough protection? For example, I read at livescience.com: "Plutonium, along with all of the other transuranium elements, is a radiological hazard and must be handled with specialized equipment and precautions. Animal studies have found that a few milligrams of plutonium per kilogram of tissue are lethal." But perhaps brief exposure is not an issue? Whatever, I will grant author Gilman some leniency on this point, since it is a fun book in a fun series. And I enjoy the reader.

[Aside: I listened to this as BOCD and it seems like they were digitized from a set of cassettes. Remember how you could sometimes hear sounds from the other side of a tape if the heads or the tape were misaligned? I would sometimes get that effect while listening. Blast from the past!]
