Book Overview
For three hundred years the Solarians had isolated themselves from the galaxy with the promise to reappear one day to bring human victory. Now, with the very existence of the human race at stake in a war with the machine-like beings of the computer worlds, they re-emerged with a completely new social order. They possessed strange talents, such as telepathy and total recall. And they had an ingenious strategy for defeating the Duglaars.From the beginning, Jay Palmer had sensed their "otherness" but he had to accept them and their plan of surrendering earth to the merciless, computer-like Duglaars--it was the only hope left.

Life has been going along happily for most people. Then, a seriously bad alien menace appears, and they have no hope of stopping it. Their only hope lies with the Solarions, and no-one has had contact with these people for hundreds of years. One man has to contact them. Once accomplished, the Solarians have a plan, but the people are not sure that their plan isn't worse than what will happen already.
What science fiction should be

I have liked Norm Spinrad for many years, especially after fondly reading his off beat short stories such as Carcinoma Angels. He's not well known but this early effort is a wonderful read. He anticipates many advances we now take for granted. I bought an original paperwork in a half-price bookstore the other day and am flying through this sci fi adventure space opera story about a future battle with against the alien Doogs. Wish Hollywood would read this stuff and make movies out of it rather than crap like Riddick and 5th Element, or Star Wars for that matter.
