fun

a very compelling & well written story! Stefan Rudnicki's performance makes it truly riveting, and hard to put down.

Good spin on world fear of smart people.

Book about how scientist are always imprisoned call it Manhattan project or any other name...

final solution they came up with is to leave earth looking for new world.

Not how I remembered it

I read this book as a teenager and thought it was one of the greatest books ever. I decided to read it again as an adult, and it’s kinda cringy lol but still entertaining at some points

Its all mixed up

when I'd listen to this book i were dumbfounded.
it's felt like a novice sci-fi writer of the new age trying to write like golden age of sci-fi, but then i Finished the book and found it IS an golden age writer.
strange.
he had some good ideas but most of the book were too naive for me

Dated, of course, but still great!!!

Even though we have mapped the human genome now, which they had not when this story was written, the questions and concerns raised, are still valid.
It is certainly not beyond the bounds of possibility that such an exile could occur. It would certainly be preferable to the probability of a World Government simply eradicating the ‘problem’, as well as the ‘problem makers’.
