Reception

Greg Costikyan reviewed Wheels Within Wheels in Ares Magazine #2 and commented that "the author's politics do not dominate the novel – non-libertarians can safely read it without danger to their mental equilibrium."^[1]

Kirkus Reviews states "A so-so effort, loosely linked to Wilson's Healer (1976); future volumes will apparently pull together the disparate threads."^[2]

The novel won the first Prometheus Award.^[3]
