Review<\/p>\n

‘A satirical novel that manages to combine both mystery and sci-fi genres….Action aplenty …and fast dialogue.’ — L.A. Times Book Review, Dec. 30, 1979<\/p>\n

‘Keith Abbott is a brilliant, virtuoso writer….He fascinates. He creates and maintains a climate of everyday perfection, and does it by destroying consistency. — Die Zeit, March 11, 1994<\/p>\n

‘This is a very funny, loose, episodic book, held together by the various conventions of popular genres. It could have been pretentious but it’s not….The plot is merely the excuse for the meetings in this novel of inventiveness, daring and great humor.’ — Contemporary Fiction, Volume I<\/p><\/div>\n
