The first-person narrative of the captain of the 'void ship' Dragon Zephyr, which leaps the light years with ease by means of its special orgasmic drive. A science-fictional fantasy about the ultimate phallic spacecraft. As is usual with Spinrad, there's a great deal of floridly written sex -- but this is perhaps his best novel since BUG JACK BARRON." - Pringle, The Ultimate Guide to Science Fiction, second edition (1995), p. 404.
