Fascinating reading up to the end and then, when you discover what it was all about, you start again at the beginning
Our ablest SF writer
NON-STOP was one of the first sf novels I read, and it haunts me to this day. Its gritty reality and wonderful list of characters make the setting seem so immediate and palpable, you can almost taste it
A splendid piece of imagination ... some really frightening happenings
Brilliant ... a classic of the field
