The Asylum World
Author: John Jakes
 
Take a trip to the Asylum World, a mind-blowing science fiction satire of our times - and times to come!
 
Gears ground and the mechanical voice started describing Newyork. ". . . such noted tourist attractions as the Mailer Obelisk the Streisand Catafalque, the ever popular Wax Museum of the Performing Arts . . . charming ethnic dining spots, prices beginning at 70 credits. Recommended are Nedick's Flaming Filet, Mother's Hot Chicken Soup Eatateria . . ."
But the visitors from Mars couldn't get to Newyork after all - it was closed except to official personnel.
Just then a trainload of lunatics passed the barrier. Official personnel?
What on earth was wrong with earth?
