5.0 out of 5 stars Great, Despite Dated Elements 6 Feb 2007
By Mr. R. Stevens
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
Fritz Leiber is best known for his Landmark Fantasy Lankmar series, which are some of the best ever in that Genre. This though is one his Science Fiction Outings, from 1964. Well It's thriling in places, endearing & funny, the way the different viewpoints are handled is superb. Despite winning the Hugo, it's not a book often talked about these days, in the same way as 'Dune', 'Lord of Light', 'The Disposessed', 'The man in the High Castle' etc. Fans of Modern Hard Sci-Fi are likely not to appreciate the humourous and off-hand elements which off-set the apocalyptic story. It feels like it's from a by-gone era, Having said that few Science Fiction novels these days are as vivid and endearing....

4.0 out of 5 stars A great scifi classic 15 Aug 2000
By Tralfamadore
Format:Paperback
First published in 1964, this is a classic period piece of science fiction.

The premise is simple.. an artificial planet suddenly appears next to the earth, causing huge earthquakes and massive tidal surges, but the inhabitants of the planet are seemingly indifferent to the plight of the Earth.

A good old-fashioned scifi book that makes you think about our impact on the earth.

1.0 out of 5 stars Sexy space cats 21 Oct 2011
By NinkyNonk
Format:Paperback
This is the stupidest book I have ever read - and as a sci-fi fan I have read and enjoyed plenty of stupid books. Rogue planets and large breasted sexy space cats. My God!

I've nothing against stupid books per say. But this stupid book commits the unforgivable stupid book crime. It's boring. And if that wasn't enough it's badly written. Somehow this is regarded as a sci-fi classic. A stupid, boring, badly written classic, I suppose.
