Average Rating: 
Rating: - Not Free SF Reader
The first Logan's Run sequel is definitely not as good as the original. After intervention by Ballard, Logan, etc., the Thinker supercomputer is no longer the force it once was. This means changes are happening.

I'd recommend that the first ... Read More
Rating: - Logan's World: A quality sequel
Logan's World continues the tale of a wonderful cast of characters created by William F. Nolan in his novel Logan's Run. This novel painted a picture of a world in which a post-apocalyptic society conserved resources and maintained social order by a strict system which included the mandatory death of all citizens on their 21st birthday.
The original work tells of the struggle of Logan and Jessica as they flee their protected "City of Domes" in an attempt to escape from the rigidity of ... Read More
