Wolfbane

Wolfbane is a science fiction novel by Frederik Pohl and C. M. Kornbluth, published in 1959.

Appallingly, the Earth and the Moon had been kidnapped from the Solar System—but who were the kidnappers and what ransom did they want?

This science fiction novel takes place in the year 2203. A rogue planet, populated by strange machines known as Pyramids, has stolen the Earth from the Solar system, taking it off into interstellar space. The moon has been 'ignited' by alien technology to serve as a miniature sun around which both planets orbit. This new sun is rekindled every 5 years, though as the book opens, the rekindling is nearly overdue and there is fear among the populace that it may never happen again.

In his review column for F&SF, Damon Knight selected the novel as one of the 10 best genre books of 1959.

Wolfbane was first published in Galaxy Magazine in October and November 1957. E-book (ePUB), 35,200 words, average reading time 2 hours, 55 min. Also available as AUDIO: Reading by Dale Grothman, running time 3 hours and 54 min. Unabridged full version.
