Exile From Xanadu

[radiofrog]

Hi all, I'm new here. I found the forums while searching for some info on Classic SF.

I'm trying to track down various references to "Xanadu," and one I can find very little info on is Lan Wright's 1964 novel, Exile From Xanadu. Has anyone here read this novel?

Yes, a nice little book.

To some extent think "The six million dollar man."

A human gets into an accident, but is repaired by aliens. The aliens not really knowing much about people put him together better than he was before.

Also there is some mixed identity as the accident has changed his appearance and he is mistaken for a rich young man (as I recall).

I note that this predates the Martin Caidin book (cyborg) by almost a decade.

Yes, a nice little book.

Thanks for answering, and welcome to the chrons forums, badchess.
