n some ways the main character of Hal Clement?s under-appreciated novel, Mission of Gravity, is not Charles Lackland, the human explorer dispatched to the planet Mesklin to retrieve stranded scientific equipment. Nor is it the small caterpillar-like creature named Barlennan, a native of Mesklin who agrees to help Lackland find and recover the equipment. Rather, the main character is the planet Mesklin itself, a place with utterly unique characteristics that make themselves felt during every interaction and calculation the intrepid Lackland and his guide have to make. Odd, formidable and of serious interest to the human scientists sent to study it, Mesklin has, at its poles, the strongest gravitational pull in the known galaxy. A place of obvious interest to Earth?s scientists with the potential to provide human beings with the most new insights into the space-time continuum since Einstein?s day, Mesklin proves a daunting challenge to the explorers who have to cope with the strange and often trying conditions.

Wow. Thank you.
I read this so many years ago, even the description only vaguely rings a bell.

This is a great book. Very fascinating planet with its variable gravity. I read it years ago, but I didn’t realize it had sequels. Hopefully we’ll see them here soon?

Superb! Thanks for providing this. If it’s available looking forward to “Heavy Planet” etc.
July 20th, 2014
ah… “Heavy Planet” is a collection which includes “Mission of Gravity”. Books 2 and 3, are, of course, “Close to Critical” and ” Star Light”.

@Anon: “Starlight” is the only real sequel, involving the same Mesklinites, on another huge “planet” (actually a star).

starlight is what I have … just digging down to it…It’s in here somewhere… :/

Thanks, from all the comments, this will make my short list for books to listen to.
I only have one Hal Clement book (Half Life), did a search and didn’t see it. I throw it up in a few minutes, and I’ll be looking out for the sequels.
Thanks agian,
