This was the first book of Hogan's that I picked up, almost twenty years ago. I was amazed by the story Hogan could tell - an intelligent, well thought out scientific thriller, with believeable characters who acted upon real motives. I have been a huge fan of Hogan's ever since, and have a collection which will be complete as soon as Amazon can find the two out-of-print titles I've ordered. Do yourself a favour and buy everything by Hogan you can get your hands on. This man can write!

It's interesting how a book written in 1978 that depicts events set in the 2000s describes advances in technology and portrays an alternate future (present). The characters are very reminiscent of a number of academic scientists (and the bureaucrats they sometimes come up against) who I know, which makes for an entertaining read.

I read this book over 20 years ago, and have remembered it as one of my favorites. I decided to buy it again, and re-read it. It was just as good as I remembered!
