The very first sci-fi book I ever read was by Edmond Hamilton. Called The Star of Life, it is wrapped in tape to keep it from falling apart. I bet it was given to me 55 year ago. So I was anticipating another good yarn with City At World's End, and I got it.
Both books are somewhat similar. Both have humans from the dawn of the space (or atomic) age being thrust forward eons into man's future. The story is how they confront that future.
If you are a feminist, you should read this book for laughs. Written in 1951, the principle female characters are women who soooooo desperately need a man's "guiding hand."
It was such an enjoyable read, I finished it in one afternoon and a night.
