	Isaac Asimov's Caliban : Book
		Roger MacBride Allen, in CALIBAN, has had the nerve to write what clearly is but the first in a new series of novels set in Asimov´s pre-Foundation robot series--and has pulled it off.
		Allen has used elements of Asimov´s style and has improved on it, eliminating much of the static preachiness that so often stilted the Master´s canon.
		Allen does a superb job of tying together the disparate threads of Asimov while still managing to weave a gripping tapestry of his own that can stand on its own.

	Roger MacBride Allen: The Depths of Time
		Recently, Roger MacBride Allen has become known for writing Star Wars novels and a continuation of Isaac Asimov's "robot" novels.
		Allen is not interested in the attack, at least not primarily.
		The measure of Allen's ability to create a universe is the fact that there is a multitude of room for additional stories either with Allen's primary characters or concepts, worlds and characters which are only peripheral.

	Roger MacBride Allen: Orphan of Creation
		Allen's novel, of course, has many similarities to both of the other works, even sharing the same essay as its point of origin with the Turtledove, but of course each author's perception of the specifics is different.
		Allen's definition of what makes someone human is, perhaps, more clinical and infinitely more measurable than the definition in Bishop or Turtledove.
		Allen has shown he is capable of the research necessary to write a great science fiction novel as well as the ability to present that information in an enjoyable and understandable manner.

	SF REVIEWS.NET: Farside Cannon / Roger MacBride Allen
		In this early effort, Allen already shows himself to be extraordinarily adept at juggling the most intricate of plots, Farside Cannon sports espionage, duplicity, political machinations to make John le Carré stand up and take notice.
		Allen smartly avoids cliché by making very few of the characters (only one, to be honest about it) an out-and-out villian — and he actually keeps a very low profile throughout the story.
		When Morrow implements his go-for-broke plan to save the earth from Cornucopia, he touches off a powder keg between the earth, the moon, and the settlers on Mars and in the asteroids that could very well lead to the first war in space.

	Roger MacBride Allen: Utopia
		Allen sticks with the mystery motif Asimov set forth in Caves of Steel and its sequels.
		Asimov imposed an overriding plot on his Robot novels as an afterthought, Allen had that plot at the beginning.
		If there is one fault with the novels, it would be the frequency with which Allen reminds the reader of the Three Laws of Robotics.

		Allen (Ring of Charon), with the imprimatur of the late SF legend, offers here a reflection on what would happen if robots did not follow Asimov's Three Laws of Robotics.
		Unfortunately, Allen misses many opportunities to delve into how robots, programmed not to harm humans, can allow the long-term safety of their masters to be put in jeopardy through robotic dependence.
		Therefore Allen had a tough road ahead of him in my mind when writing additional material for that universe and he succeed completely.

		Allen's Hunted Earth series (begun in The Ring of Charon, 1990) has been promoted to hardcover for its second installment.
		Kidnapped by the Charonian aliens, Earth is in their stellar system and caught in a conflict between the Charonians and another, even more potent and malevolent alien race and has very little power to defend itself.
		Roger Allen MacBride-Allen does a great job of introducing these characters, showing their challenges, and then very convincingly details how these people rise to solve them.

	The Templeton Gate - Authors - Roger MacBride Allen's Orphan of Creation
		I do have some knowledge of the techniques of archaeology (I used to be married to one of its practitioners) and can state that Allen's descriptions, not only of the dig itself, but also of the type of people who do such work, is convincingly accurate.
		The Baen Books edition has been out of print for several years, but recently Allen reprinted it himself through his own publishing company, FoxAcre Press, and it can be ordered directly from them or through amazon.com.
		Considering that there are several other Allen novels out of print, and that this is the only one of them that he has so far offered himself, should tell you how he feels about its merits.

		Roger MacBride Allen can write some great books, I have to admit his Star Wars books where better than The Depths of Time.......
		RMA seemed to put a ton of effort into the plot and details of the Corellian Trilogy, but it all seemed to fall flat, with nothing being very exciting, IMO.
		All the characters, I think, were written very well (my favorite parts were when Lando's misadventures trying to look for a suitable wife), and the climactic battle kicked arse.

		Allen has a decent grasp of the characters and he writes the Solo children very well.
		The plot all about exploding stars and solar system wide planetary flouts is a little hard to take seriously, but overall the story is very well-written.
		Leia after several books dealing with her being the chief of state still has government work to do, but Allen takes a better more personal approach to her.

		For example, there is no physical reason ships can't travel forward in time through the wormholes, or manipulate their travel times so as to arrive in and change their own pasts.
		From there, Allen opens out his story, exploring the finer points of his vision of space and time travel.
		The trouble is, as Allen points out, that even massively long-lived humans are still just humans, and humans are not omniscient.
