"... an effective standalone blend of mystery and adventure on a world where unspecified disaster has been foretold by a highly specialist expert now lost to amnesia." - John Clute / Malcolm J. Edwards, SFE (online). "Minor early Asimov set against the interstellar background of the Trantorian Empire (about to become the galactic empire of the 'Foundation' series). A complex adventure with an anti-racist theme." - Pringle, The Ultimate Guide to Science Fiction, second edition (1995), p. 83. Boards a bit faded at edges, edges rubbed, a very good copy in nearly fine dust jacket with mild rubbing to spine ends and corners and hint of dust soiling to rear panel. A nice copy overall.
