I could feel some of Isaac Asimov and E.E. Doc Smith in the book, but it had its own view of what life might be like a thousand or so years into the future. A worthwhile read,...” see full review » see other reviews » |

That is all that can be said about this horrible mess of a book.

I thought I read the book in the 80's but realized I only must have read the first have.. Fun Read. It would have been more believable if the earth's residents had been destroyed a hundred years ago instead a thousand years ago. I think too much was working & not changed to dust but still enjoyed the book.”

I knew Hubbard as a sci-fi author years before I discovered his, uh, other 'work'. I like his sci-fi, even reading the ridiculously long "Mission Earth" series. I am no fan of his other 'work'.
Recently on Amazon Kindle daily special, can't beat $0.99 for 1000 pages of good sci-fi.”
“About the only thing he wrote that was worth a shit. Less fiction in this than Dianetics.”

Written by the founder of scientology, and it has some philosophy scattered throughout. Highly recommended to those who like sci-fi.”

I chose to read this book because I love fantasy works and I love books that have to do with aliens. I`t starts out like this: the human race is on the verge of extinction, an alien race by the name of the Physclos have taken over and used the planet as a mining expedition, wiping out most of the humans along the way. It is about a group of people who have made it their goal to take over the horrible alien race and get their planet back. This is a lengthy tale of how they do it and what they have to overcome. I would really suggest this book to everyone, although it is very lengthy, at almost 2,000 pages long!”
