* [[Reincarnation Romance]]
* [[The Remake]]: ''[http://www.amazon.com/Night-Land-Story-Retold/dp/0615508812/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1315432157&sr=8-2 The Night Land: A Story Retold]''. It's the same story, but with a more reader-friendly writing-style, extra scenes, and more detailed characterization. It was written by James Stoddard, a contributor to the previously-mentioned fan site, http://www.thenightland.co.uk.
* [[Schizo -Tech]]: Despite super-strong metals, electric [[Deflector Shields]], [[Energy Weapons]], and the like, men still fight monsters in armor and carrying a melee weapon rather than a gun. Aircraft used to exist, but the air has become too thin for them.
* [[Science Marches On]]: When the book was written, scientists indeed believed the Sun would slowly fade, eventually beyond visibility. We now expect it to get very slowly brighter over the next few billion years, before swelling into a red giant and destroying the Earth. (Though after that it will eventually die back down).
** Also, time scales; we now know the Earth's core will be completely cooled long before the sun runs down.
