A For Andromeda... is essential reading for anyone who wants to
know what British science fiction was like before the 'New Worlds'

*Amazon Reviewer*
A good read. I remember the original BBC version, Julie Christie
and all. I have seen the latest version, so it was good to go back
to the original book.
*Amazon Reviewer*
A first-class novel, original and disturbing. It is a brightly
written, really exciting tale with the added inducement of
scientific accuracy.
