Nicely plotted, well written science fiction thriller with a good mystery. I actually remembered the big secret from when I last read this thirty years ago, so it must have made quite an impression. Thirty years ago would have been about the right time for the implications of the novel to be coming to fruition. A little dated now, but still very enjoyable.

A well written thriller. A really easy read. I've seen the movie a few times and, from what I can remember, it follows the book really closely. I wish I had read the book first because it would be great to work out the twist at the same time as Leibermann.
