Customer Reviews

Not one of his best, but still VAN-VOGT.

This is a well-built book. Allthough not one of those crazy, mind-blowing, and half psichodellic books that van-vogt often unleashes at us, its a good one. It has the tipical plot twists and lead charecter that makes you think-" Damn! now that's a man!", and ofcourse a few females that cant be trusted. Buy it if youre a van-vogt fan or if you want to "taste" him but consider yourself a "down to earth sci-fi reader".
