I’ve picked up The Solarians by Norman Spinrad (1966) again

As you may recall, the main character is grating in a “damned computers! Let a man be a MAN!” way

And the society is annoying for being straw bureaucrats who really ARE slavishly devoted to the advice of their computers

And we’ve finally met the titular Solarians, who are condescending superbeings who, at a guess, turned away from computers 300 years ago to develop psychic powers like telepathy and perfect time/space awareness (who needs a calculator to determine when you’re far enough away from a star to avoid blowing it up when you can just feel it?)

This didn’t feel like it’s going to be the WORST space opera I’ve read, but I think I’m still going to be hoping that there are no survivors at the end.
