About this ebook

Brion Brandd was chosen for the mission because he was the very best of the best. It is up to him to avert a nuclear war, but even all his training and intelligence might not be enough to save a world. Nothing is as it seems and every action could be his last. This tightly plotted adventure novel was nominated for the prestigious Hugo Award.

    Fairly standard space opera - stop a war, save a planet, etc. However, it was done very well. True classic sf.

    There are very few Harrison books I don't like. This book was nominated for a Hugo Award in 1962. It's a good story for the early 1960s. I am being a little generous by giving it 4 stars but I admit it did hold my interest.It brings up the dilemma of; should you try to save the people of a country, or planet that appears to have no redeeming qualities.

    That handful of cantos I read made me feel smart for a bit while reading this. The planet in question is named Dis, which is totally a circle of Hell. And get this: an extremely hot one. Which the planet is. There is some intrigue and an interesting bit about symbiotes and things. I gotta be honest here, I was thinking that Harrison was a different author when I downloaded this novel along with some short stories (all carefully researched to have no copyrights, more things from Astounding and the like). It doesn't matter though, it was enjoyable, like Dostoevsky's stuff.
