"(...) From cavernous cities beneath the surface of the moon... Earth seems a sinister planet hanging in the sky. But to the Pluto colony, Earth Satellite Base holds the only possible reprieve from a terrifying death sentence. And on Earth itself, alien intelligence prowls the skies, kidnapping people for its own inhuman amusement. This is the day past tomorrow. Time has ended and man has begun his endless journey out into the Universe. Startling stories of time and space from a master of science fiction"..."

"'The Menace from Earth opens with a gorgeous young woman disrobing in full view of passers-by on a Los Angeles street. As Robert Heinlein's own Future History continues to unfold, the reader is transported to the moon, to Jupiter, Pluto and the stars beyond. The New York Times calls Heinlein "the undisputed dean of science fiction writers"!"
