This is the only novel Cordwainer Smith ever wrote during his distinguished career. It tells the story of a boy form the planet Old North Australia (where rich, simple farmers grow the immortality drug Stroon), how he bought Old Earth, and how his visit to Earth changed both him and Earth itself. Vividly drawn and wonderfully suggestive...confirms that Cordwainer Smith was one of science fiction's most original writers. -- Science Fiction: The Best 100 Novels Better than any writer we've yet seen, Smith represents the sense of awe and wonder that is the heart of science fiction. -- Scott Edelman, Science Fiction Age
