Venus and Mars colonies (mostly offstage) rebel against Earth, as told from the viewpoint of a young physicist who studied on Earth and has become a pawn of the Venusian military. I can no longer remember what we thought Venus was like in the 1963, but this seems unlikely even for that time. The plot is pretty far-fetched, but what dooms this book is the sexual relationship our college-age hero has with a 16 year old. All the talk about free-thinking Earth mores can't make that any less skeevy.
Típica guerra interplanetaria entre Venusinos y Terráqueos.
