Logan's Run by William F. Nolan George and Clayton Johnson is generally disappointing. This is not just because it does not have some of the finer elements and plot points of the movie (and it does not… no domed city, no post-apocalyptic innocence of the characters) but because it gets tangled up in sci-fi tropes that really bring the reader no place at all. The plot is held together by slender and irrelevant threads. This is an overpopulation novel from the 1960s and for the most part, this genre has not aged well. The result is a mess.
