About the Author
L. Ron Hubbard's legendary writing career spanned more than half a century of enduring literary achievement and creative influence, encompassing more than 250 published novels, novelettes, short stories and screenplays in every major genre. Among his best-selling and classic speculative fiction trendsetters are "Mission Earth," "Fear" and "Final Blackout."
Hailed as a writer's writer and an unexcelled master of narrative prose, his life experiences and travels in all corners of the globe were wide and diverse. His inexhaustible curiosity and intense personal belief that one should live a life as a professional led to a lifetime of extraordinary accomplishment. He was also an explorer and ethnologist, mariner and pilot, filmmaker and photographer, philosopher and educator, composer and musician.
Mr. Hubbard passed away in 1986, but his literary legacy lives on indelibly in works that continue to reverberate down through generations and millions of readers, making him one of the most widely read and highly acclaimed writers of our time.
From AudioFile
This first-class adventure novel is imbedded in mediocre science fiction, which contains no trace of Hubbard's Scientology. One thousand years after his sadistic race nearly destroyed humanity, an alien teaches a human too much, and we prevail. McDowell's voice is perfect with accented voices and passionate narration. The text is not burdened by music or sound effects though tape turning instructions would have been appreciated. Recommended for all popular collections. D.W. (c)AudioFile, Portland, Maine
