4.0 out of 5 stars
Odd, unpredictable, interesting, April 28 2007
By Dr. Meat - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Three-Ring Psychus (Mass Market Paperback)
While not Shirley's best work, Three Ring Psychus has the manic energy and unpredictable flow similar to late 70's/early 80's sci-fi mavericks like Mick Farren.Foreshadowing Shirley's interest in gestalt consciousness, cosmic adjustments, and social upheaval, Three Ring Psychus is a great science-fiction adventure and stands well next to his early work like Transmaniacon and City Come a Walkin.

1.0 out of 5 stars
Early work shows some promise, but..., Dec 5 1999
By Matthew C. Cook - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Three-Ring Psychus (Mass Market Paperback)
This early Shirley work (possibly his first novel?) is amateurish and immature, with some hints here and there of the talent that later produced some of the best cyberpunk and horror fiction around. Not to get too far into it, early on the earth loses it's gravitational field, and many people are killed or starve to death while floating around loose. The rest go on to create some sort of utopia, though not really an ideal one. The book gets rather preachy in a naive socialistic sort of way, and barely escapes being laughable in its romanticism. I can't recommend buying it unless you just have to fill out your collection.
