Summary:
Dream Park is the amusement park of the future where holograms take the place of rollercoasters and carousels.
While the dialogue and writing style of this book does not have the same character as found in other Larry Niven books I have read, it has both an interesting setting and an exciting story. The concept of the Dream Park is one which would strike a chord in anyone who has ever played a role playing game, and the plot keeps you guessing right up until the end.
Notes:
Collaboration, co-written with Steven Barnes
