Summary: Cities in Flight
Comment: I think I have the Trilogy of Cities in Flight. I have re-read it at least 3 times and still consider it one of the top ten Science Fiction books of all time. I rank it at least equal to the Foundation Series if not greater in execution of the advancement speicies, including the experience of the end of time!

Summary: A Classic--in the true sense
Comment: Like many people, I first read this collection of four novels when I was in High School. Long out-of-print I was very happy to see them repackaged for a whole new generation. This is high-quality science fiction from the golden age. I was suprised that so little of the technology is out-of-date (vacuum tubes excepted) that it reads as fresh now as it did before.
But this is more than just the superficial sci-fi that we sometimes hear about. Much more than spaceships and aliens, these novels dig deep into our culture, our sensabilities, our fundamental attitudes. It is a story of the human condition, as told by one of the grand masters of science fiction. If you enjoy Heinlein, Asimov, and Bradbury, you'll like this one. If you aren't into sci-fi, I think you will still find a lot to like about Cities in Flight. Give it a try.

Summary: Wow
Comment: Yes, this was written many years ago and as such some of the details would be different if written today--big deal. Like much greate science fiction this is a novel of people and ideas and in many ways, still as relevant today as it was then. Still a great read if you love science fiction.
