"Vivid whodunit plotting... magnificent concept."
- The Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction "One of the most believable science-fiction books in years."
- Astounding Science Fiction "Half brilliant imaginative science-adventure-detective story, half bitter and biting social satire, Dreadful Sanctuary is one of the more adult additions to the growing shelf of reprints from the Fabulous Forties."
