Ruiz Tremello & Marguerite are in Rangoon, Italy, for the first part of their discussion on Leo P. Kelley's magnificent 1968 novel, "Odyssey to Earthdeath". And what a novel! Ruiz in particular was taken by this story: by its post-World-War-3 dystopia, by its vague, cultish religions, and most of all, by its varied cast of characters. This one's unique.
Leo P. Kelley is the author of two YA SF series, "Space Police" and "Galaxy 5", and over a dozen other novels, including several Westerns.
