- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5As before quite enjoyable I liked the idea of instantaneous travel and the way that it was dealt with in the story. Again enjoyed the detective and the insight we get into his decisions.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Pretty good as these things go, and it hits the sci-fi spot if you're jonesin'. The cover bears no relation to the contents. Also, I love how they thought everything would be the same and they'd be all keepin' women in their place and wearing fedoras and junk, and only science would change, because they had developed the perfect society. But yeah, good read and you don't have to pay attention that much and it's mildly inventive the way he splices "technology changes the world" story with "ultrafuturistic alien civilization comes to Earth, guides, meddles, judges, is judged, and ultimately learns a things or two" tale.
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5Run of the mill private eye story in an SF setting.
