	Ship of Fools (painting) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

	Review \| Ship of Fools by Richard Paul Russo
		Richard Paul Russo's Ship of Fools is a science fiction novel set in an unspecified far-future, long after the Earth has been made uninhabitable, presumably because of human mismanagement.
		It describes the events surrounding the ship's discovery of a deserted human outpost on a planet many on board the ship want to colonize and, shortly thereafter, its first contact with evidence of intelligent alien life: an apparently derelict spaceship clearly of non-human design.
		In Ship of Fools, the tense scenes of exploration aboard the alien craft certainly evoke that film, but Scott's alien seemed (ignoring the sequels by other hands), ultimately, to be obeying a biological imperative to survive, whereas Russo's aliens are truly nasty, if somewhat unfathomable (as aliens should be).

		What a fantastic book this is! I have always loved science fiction, but over the last 20 years or so have become increasingly disenchanted with the genre's obsession with fantasy and mega-hitech futures.
		This book is like a breath of fresh air, combining one of my favourite themes (the 'generation' ship) with traditional sci-fi.
		The encounter with the alien ship is also wonderful, reminiscent of a cross between 'Alien' and 'The Cube', but much better.
