Destiny Doll

This is probably the first time I didn't really care for something written by Simak. I found it to be really strange and hard to follow. The basic premise was okay. It's about an odd assortment of people traveling to a planet that locks them in a tractor beam, lands them, and then seals their spaceship shut so they're forced to stay on the planet forever. There were robots and weird aliens, as in most of his works. But I found the prose to be rambling and too esoteric, and the characters not all together likeable. It made for a less than enjoyable read.
