Polymath, John Brunner (1974)

I have another dozen or so Brunner books to read, including Stand on Zanzibar and The Sheep Look Up, and I am starting to really enjoy Brunner’s style.

Polymath is an early Brunner Novel that first appeared in an Ace Double as Castaway’s World. This later revision has a good adventure plot plus heavy Brunner themes. It works well.

    He had something like 93 novels before he died. That's quite a body of work. A lot of his novels can be found as vintage books on Ebay.

    Did Bruner write a sequel to Polymath?

    Not that I know of. Brunner wrote a new novel every few months and he wrote hundreds of short stories. I’ve only read about half of his stuff.
