Overview: You Will Never Be the Same (1963) is the title of Cordwainer Smith’s first collection, and for once the title was not an instance of a publisher making empty noises. The reader will be entering a distant future world with strange place names like the Up-and-Out, Old North Australia, Alpha Ralpha Boulevard, and Raumsog. Some of the characters are Scanners, Pinlighters, a planoform Go-Captain, a fiery cat girly-girl, robot doctors, and a Mark Elf. The whole business is run by the Instrumentality, which at one time was headed by by Lord Wait but later by Lord Jesticost and Lady Alice More.
