4.0 out of 5 stars Early Farmer Entertains, February 11, 2007
By Chris Ward (Costa Rica) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is one of Philip Jose Farmer's very early books, and long-time fans of his more mature work will enjoy this clever satire that must have been pretty racy in its day. A group of astronauts returns to Earth after 800 years-- only a few years in their relative experience-- to find the world utterly changed. Farmer's love of religion and atavism and provocative sexual situations is in fine fettle here, and a light adventure results. It's not as transgressive as his best works, but enjoyable. You'll get a kick out of the game baseball has become after 800 years: the ball has metal spikes in it and frequent fatalities are common. Would that we could speed up time and spice up the game per Farmer's thinking... then A-Rod might be worth what the Yankees are paying him....

5.0 out of 5 stars Wiccan\Radical Ecologist Must-have!, December 16, 1997
By A Customer
This review is from: Flesh (Paperback)
If you root for the monster in monster movies, this one's for you. I loved Commander Stagg's opponents in this "voyagers return from the stars to a strange future world" story. Of all the post apocalytic futures in sci-fi, this is one of the most palatable--a racier version of Robt. Graves' Watch the North Wind Rise. PJF can spin a terrific, fast reading tale! Take a ride with an old time writer who puts the modern genre stuff to shame.

4.0 out of 5 stars Typical Phillip Jose Farmer, Incredible, September 15, 1996
By A Customer
This review is from: Flesh (Paperback)
Thrilling post-apocalyptic America at it's best. The new order thrown away science and it's ecology damaging side effects and gone back to mother earth. Imagine what happens when a starship lands after an 800 year voyage of exploration. Don't miss it

4.0 out of 5 stars Not Free SF Reader
A ship captain returns to a very different earth. A quite amusing religious satire, with the odd sport joke, too. Read more
