While ''[[Slan]]'' was not van Vogt's best work, it was exciting, full of intriguing ideas, and caught the imagination of science fiction fans of the day. Mocked and persecuted for their choice of reading matter, SF fans identified with the highly intelligent Slan. "Fans are Slans" became a rallying cry for a certain segment of fandom.
 
Influences from ''Slan'' can be seen in works ranging from the [[X -Men]] continuities to ''[[Toward the Terra]]''.
 
In 1984, A.E. van Vogh started a sequel to ''Slan'', but was unable to complete more than an outline and partial draft before he was struck by Alzheimer's disease. After his death in 2000, his wife Lydia and Kevin J. Anderson finished the book and it was realeased in 2007 as ''Slan Hunter''.
