Review by Library Journal Review

Written before the United States entered World War II, this title was the first full-length novel by the would-be Hugo, Nebula, and Sequoyah Award-winning sf master. The novel, also known as The Day After Tomorrow, serves up a postwar America defeated by the PanAsians. The Citadel, a secret research facility, inadvertently releases a deadly energy source, the Ledbetter Effect. The six survivors of the Citadel tragedy work toward defying the Pan-Asian invaders and spreading resistance across the ravaged land. VERDICT Stage actor and award-winning narrator Tom Weiner provides an engaging reading, bringing to life each character as well as the ragtag counterinsurgency fighting for survival. This will be welcomed by Heinlein's many fans and sf lovers in general.-Denise A. Garofalo, Mount Saint Mary Coll. Lib., Newburgh, NY (c) Copyright 2012.
