The story also ends very abruptly, as soon as the leaders make their way via the 300-year-old city sewer system into the fascist leader’s, Recman’s, office the story just stops. The narration states that the planet-wide fascist movement would die without Recman to lead it and then it does.
Yet again, the story I set out to read was not the story that I got. The title Beyond the Barrier of Space was more than a little misleading, the only space involved was that that the aliens flew their ships through to invade. Even if it were referring to the boundless human mind, the mind-control/personality-mutating drug only appears at three points in the story like Chekov’s Gun. It was an action-movie version of a political thriller on another planet where the politicians and an elderly marshal are the heroes.
It was an easy read though. I would have read it all in one go had I not been called to dinner halfway through, I came back and finished it after. I enjoyed the first two-thirds but the first bit of the last third did drag a little and the ending was just sudden with no build-up, or even any attempt at suspense at the success of the politicians’ plan. I did not get a sense of any greater message here other than fascists are bad and will always fail in the end but the fact that the fascists were voted into a coalition government was never addressed at all. It’s a very shallow book. I would only recommend this book for its kitsch value other than that I did not mind it but it has the elements of a better story in it.
