"The Earth is moved out of its orbit by aliens who capture humans in order to use their bodies in a vast computer complex; it is a precursor to some of the most ambitious work of authors like Stephen Baxter and Greg Bear." - SFE (online).

An extremely odd story, part satire and part gosh-wow tale of super-science. The fourth and last collaborative SF novel by these talented authors (Kornbluth died in 1958). In a 1986 revision Pohl has smoothed over some of the first edition's faults." - Pringle, The Ultimate Guide to Science Fiction, second edition (1995), pp. 424-5. Anatomy of Wonder (2004) II-865.

Small octavo, pictorial wrappers. First paperback edition. Bantam Books 1317. "A very different reading of the New York underworld from that of the GODFATHER. In a future New York, the Syndic has evolved into a free, highly permissive society, with what used to be 'protection' functioning as a mild form of taxation. Chicago's mob is quite the opposite, a brutal police state. A U.S. government-in-exile on the Irish coast complicates the picture. Faced with all these menaces, the Syndic is told by the hero that it must prepare for war and, in violation of its permissive principles, institute a military draft. But its genial philosopher-king refuses on the ground that the Syndic would then no longer be the Syndic. Kornbluth at his wickedly fun-poking best." - Anatomy of Wonder (2004) II-612.

Octavo, boards. First edition. A novel "that showed what rule by Russians under Stalinist principles might actually have been like . Widely noticed in the mainstream media, for self-serving purposes, as a Cold War wake-up call." - Anatomy of Wonder (2004) II-610. "The Russians and Chinese successfully invade America, but the lucky hero is able to fight back with a secret spacecraft. A well-written narrative, as one would expect from this author -- but it's also a bundle of paranoid Cold War clichés. Highly regarded in its time, it's now almost a forgotten book (though Frederik Pohl issued a revised edition in 1981). Published in Britain as CHRISTMAS EVE." - Pringle, The Ultimate Guide to Science Fiction, second edition (1995), p. 260.
