Plague-ship Pilots & Planet Plunderers

Space is the place, both where and when we appear to find all destiny manifest as simply the otherworldly kind. In the 1960's, America experienced the British invasion. For the 2060's, America may experience extraterrestrial invasion. Xenophobia has always been an extension of each socio-political milieu we as a collective society immerse ourselves in.


Shane M.'s Most Popular Reviews

Part Anthony Burgess, Aldous Huxley, Brian Aldiss, coupled with George Orwell. Imagine these four authors in bed together as result of some inanely insane orgiastic orchestration, with the gyrating melodies of a chemically induced cosmic conflagration overflowing into, occupying, and subsequently overpowering your mind's occipital lobe as you read this novel.

For the price of admission as you journey into this book, there's a minimum of a dozen (if not perhaps dozens more) "magic carpet rides" which both readers and the dramatis personae wanderinng through this story may subjectively and submersively find themselves wandering or otherwise meandering into.

Don 't squander all your 'joy juice;' fleeting fantasies of total control will both beguile & bewilder each & any reader of this book.

Alexi Panshin's first published book, as well as his initial foray into literary criticism in concern with fellow author Robert A. Heinlein.

If "the Devil is in the details" concerning this book, then the "details" were what kept me turning the pages as I continued to read this book in the first place.

If you really want to live to be 100, you might altogether simply not need to read this book to accomplish said task, if and when such a task proves to be your overriding goat.

An impeccable & incontrivertably inspiring biographical account of all that which the members of the Kennedy family both were & are, inseperably linked through all the turmoil, tragedy, and ultimate triumph of the American people.
