Humankind discovered the Heechee legacy--in particular an asteroid stocked with autonavigating spacecraft. In GATEWAY the impoverished Robinette Broadhead won a lottery ticket to the asteroid, rode a Heechee ship into interstellar space & returned to Earth a conscience-stricken millionaire. Then in BEYOND THE BLUE EVENT HORIZON, Broadhead financed & eventually led the expedition which unlocked many secrets of Heechee technology.
Now, in HEECHEE RENDEZVOUS, Robinette Broadhead is forced once more to make a perilous voyage into space--where the Heechee are waiting. And this time the future of our species is at stake.]]> 22996 3.67 4758 383 1984 392566 0575075287 9780575075283 17 <![CDATA[The Space Merchants]]> http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1174404761m/392566.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1174404761s/392566.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/392566.The_Space_Merchants 3.80 259 2768688 3.89 1117 109 22996 3.67 4758 383 1952 77463 0345325664 9780345325662 5 <![CDATA[The Annals of the Heechee (Heechee Saga 4)]]> http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1170900189m/77463.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1170900189s/77463.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/77463.The_Annals_of_the_Heechee 3.52 241 22996 3.67 4758 383 1987 367215 1857989465 9781857989465 12 <![CDATA[Man Plus]]> http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1174161745m/367215.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1174161745s/367215.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/367215.Man_Plus 3.53 173 22996 3.67 4758 383 1976 591572 8445074679 9788445074671 5 <![CDATA[Jem]]> http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1195880043m/591572.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1195880043s/591572.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/591572.Jem 3.53 100 22996 3.67 4758 383 1979 218429 0345375440 9780345375445 1 <![CDATA[The Gateway Trip]]> http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1172796283m/218429.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1172796283s/218429.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/218429.The_Gateway_Trip 3.74 87 Many of those brave souls never returned.

Twenty-five years after the Hugo and Nebula Award-winning bestseller Gateway, Frederik Pohl returns with a new Gateway novel. Filled with excitement and the sense of wonder that made Gateway a huge success, The Boy Who Would Live Forever is a memorable journey into the unknown.

Stan and Estrella, two young people from Earth, journey to the Gateway asteroid looking for adventure, and discover each other during a flight in one of the ships the alien Heechee left behind when they explored our Solar System. Stan and Estrella settle among the Heechee on a planet in the galactic core, never suspecting that the two of them may be the last, best hope to save the humans and Heechee in the core from destruction by a crazed madman.

Wan Enrique Santos-Smith, a man full of loathing for the Heechee, will stop at nothing to destroy the Heechee and their human friends. But Stan and Estrella, with the help of a fabulously wealthy philanthropist and the unique machine mind Marc Antony, are determined to thwart Wan’s terrible plan. At stake is nothing less than the fate of all life in the galaxy.</DIV>]]> 22996 3.67 4758 383 2004 611402 0812535197 9780812535198 10 <![CDATA[The Other End of Time]]> http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1176306268m/611402.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1176306268s/611402.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/611402.The_Other_End_of_Time 3.39 85 The Other End of Time and The World at the End of Time, his latest novel features Dan Dannerman, a poorly paid government agent in the not-too-distant future.

Collected in this anthology are such imaginative gems as:

"The Wedding Album" by David Marusek. In a high-tech future, the line between reality and simulation has grown thin . . . and it's often hard to tell who's on what side.

"Everywhere" by Geoff Ryman. Do the people who live in utopian conditions ever recognize them as such?

"Hatching the Phoenix" by Frederik Pohl. One of science fiction's Grand Masters returns with a star-crossing tale of the Heechee---the enigmatic, vanished aliens whose discarded technology guides mankind through the future.

"A Hero of the Empire" by Robert Silverberg. Showing that the past is as much a province of the imagination as the future, this novelette returns to an alternate history when the Roman Empire never fell to show us just how the course of history can be altered.

The twenty-seven stories in this collection imaginatively take us to nearby planets and distant futures, into the past and into universes no larger than a grain of sand. Included here are the works of masters of the form and of bright new talents.

Supplementing the stories are the editor's insightful summation of the year's events and a lengthy list of honorable mentions, making this book a valuable resource in addition to serving as the single best place in the universe to find stories that stir the imagination and the heart.

Wan-To was the oldest and must powerful intelligence in the universe, a being who played with star systems as a child plays with marbles. Matter occupied so tiny a part of his vast awareness that humans were utterly beneath his notice.

The colonists of Newmanhome first suffered the effects of Wan-To's games when their planet's stars began to shift, the climate began to cool down, and the colony was forced into a desperate struggle to survive.

Viktor Sorricaine was determined to discover what force had suddenly sent his world hurtling toward the ends of the universe. And the answer was something beyond the scope of his imagination -- even if he lived for 4000 years...

They were to be the first explorers sent to another stellar system. There they would explore the planet Alpha-Aleph and then return. They were the toast of the world press--true heroes, for they were to go where no man had gone before.
Or so they thought.
Dr. Dieter von Knefhausen knew otherwise--for there was no planet, no place to go...and no place from which to return. Knefhuasen had planned it that way. Of course, Knefhausen realized his plan wasn't exactly ethical. But then, he knew the ends often justify the means.
And Knefhausen's plan worked better then even he had ever hoped!

Heinlein, Jack Williamson, Clifford D. Simak, Fritz Leiber, and L. Sprague de Camp) who established the fundamentals of the science fiction genre ... the writers who first dazzled the world with their brilliant ideas and sent our imaginations zooming into the future. Representative short stories from each of the writers--such as a tale of the ever rich and strange world of Nehwon from Leiber--are accompanied by a sample of each writer's nonfiction, an overview of their life and career by Pohl--who knew them all--and a recommended reading list. All together, this volume is both the perfect way to introduce someone just discovering science fiction to the classic writers of the field, and ideal for veteran science fiction readers to remind themselves just why they love the genre so much. "With Folded Hands," anyone? --Blaise Selby

The Last Theorem is a story of one man’s mathematical obsession, and a celebration of the human spirit and the scientific method. It is also a gripping intellectual thriller in which humanity, facing extermination from all-but-omnipotent aliens, the Grand Galactics, must overcome differences of politics and religion and come together . . . or perish.

In 1637, the French mathematician Pierre de Fermat scrawled a note in the margin of a book about an enigmatic theorem: “I have discovered a truly marvelous proof of this proposition which this margin is too narrow to contain.” He also neglected to record his proof elsewhere. Thus began a search for the Holy Grail of mathematics–a search that didn’t end until 1994, when Andrew Wiles published a 150-page proof. But the proof was burdensome, overlong, and utilized mathematical techniques undreamed of in Fermat’s time, and so it left many critics unsatisfied–including young Ranjit Subramanian, a Sri Lankan with a special gift for mathematics and a passion for the famous “Last Theorem.”

When Ranjit writes a three-page proof of the theorem that relies exclusively on knowledge available to Fermat, his achievement is hailed as a work of genius, bringing him fame and fortune. But it also brings him to the attention of the National Security Agency and a shadowy United Nations outfit called Pax per Fidem, or Peace Through Transparency, whose secretive workings belie its name. Suddenly Ranjit–together with his wife, Myra de Soyza, an expert in artificial intelligence, and their burgeoning family–finds himself swept up in world-shaking events, his genius for abstract mathematical thought put to uses that are both concrete and potentially deadly.

Meanwhile, unbeknownst to anyone on Earth, an alien fleet is approaching the planet at a significant percentage of the speed of light. Their mission: to exterminate the dangerous species of primates known as homo sapiens.]]> 7779 3.71 45840 2510 22996 3.67 4758 383 2009 1171506 0552088048 9780552088046 1 <![CDATA[The Age of the Pussyfoot]]> http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-111x148.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-60x80.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1171506.The_Age_of_the_Pussyfoot 4.00 10 22996 3.67 4758 383 1965 2157742 1 <![CDATA[Venus, Inc.]]> http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1252889911m/2157742.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1252889911s/2157742.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2157742.Venus_Inc_ 3.92 12

ALDISS and HARRY HARRISON. ALDISS is a prolific award-winning author of over two dozen novels, hundreds of short stories, several critical works, and poetry. His latest novels are THE TWINKLING OF AN EYE: OR MY LIFE AS AN ENGLISHMAN and SUPERTOYS. The multiple award-winning author of dozens of novels of speculative fiction, HARRISON is best known for The Stainless Steel Rat series, MAKE ROOM! MAKE ROOM! (the basis for the film SOYLENT GREEN), and the alternate history novels STARS & STRIPES FOREVER and STARS & STRIPES IN PERIL. He lives in Ireland.

The Secret Place by Richard McKenna - "[A} sensitive piece of writing, a perfect example of second generation science fiction, the retelling and reexamination of a theme that originated in the pulp years..."

Light of Other Days by Bob Shaw - The memorable classic featuring "slow glass" through which light takes a very long time to travel.

Who Needs Insurance? by Robin S. Scott - If one can be accident prone, then perhaps one can be "safety-prone" -- but why?

Among the Hairy Earthmen by R.A. Lafferty - Earth is nothing more than a bloody playground for the children of the gods.

The Last Castle by Jack Vance - A prime example of one of Vance's "haunting mood-possessed visions of the distant future, written in a style that stirs the reader to reaction and response."

Day Million by Frederik Pohl - A very short story "jewel-like conciseness" of future love, life, and romance.

When I Was Miss Dow by Sonya Dorman - "[A] sense of strangeness, more than a bit of human warmth, as well as a good strong whiff of alien strangeness."

Call Him Lord by Gordon R. Dickson - Earth proves to be a testing ground for the son of an emperor of a hundred worlds.

In the Imagicon by George Henry Smith - "What good was paradise without something to compare it to? Without a taste of hell from time to time, how could a man appreciate heaven?"

We Can Remember It For You Wholesale by Philip K. Dick - Now better know as the story on which film Total Recall was based, the original is a far more subtle questioning of reality.

Man In His Time by Brian W. Aldiss - The sole survivor of crash landing on Mars returns to Earth, but is 3.3077 minutes ahead of the rest of the world.

A paraplegic comes to Justin's farm asking for work. He's given make-work, then leaves. When Justin enters the nearest town, Norton, for supplies, he's drawn into a conspiracy with the paraplegic & others. The former turns out to be an army general. Buried in Chiunga County is a half-finished weapons satellite that requires parts & technical know-how to place it in orbit. The Soviet military police soon apparently capture all of them but himself & the general.
Receiving messages hidden in mail Betsy Cardew delivers, Justin deduces that the contacts he needs are in Washington, PA. With a traveling preacher, Sparhawk, he walks hundreds of miles from Chiunga to Washington. Arrested by a military patrol, they're separated. Justin attempts to pass himself as one of Sparhawk's converts who can't be molested due to the Democratic Republic's freedom of religion. He & Sparhawk are exiled at the town border & soon arrive at Washington, where he's given instructions about an assault planned for Xmas Eve on Chiunga Center to liberate the satellite. He & Sparhawk are sent back there with a specialist.
Despite Soviet torture of a local farmer, they're kept ignorant of what "Xmas Eve", a mild oath they hear sworn by citizens, means until the battle begins. Coordinated by Gen. Hollerith, the paraplegic, area bridges are blown up & arsenals sabotaged as townspeople are armed & fight as the satellite is launched. Hollerith's forces triumph. A radio message declares the satellite will destroy Moscow & Peiping in 24 hours if occupation soldiers don't evacuate American soil & release war prisoners. Hollerith offers Justin high positions, but he declines to kneel in prayer with Sparhawk, fearing mutual assured destruction.]]> 2768688 3.89 1117 109 22996 3.67 4758 383 1955 1112386 0312852525 9780312852528 1 <![CDATA[Our Angry Earth]]> http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1227325705m/1112386.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1227325705s/1112386.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1112386.Our_Angry_Earth 3.00 8 16667 3.90 103989 3717 22996 3.67 4758 383 2936902 3.00 8 1 1991 1875625 0553109480 9780553109481 1 <![CDATA[Critical Mass]]> http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1189608412m/1875625.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1189608412s/1875625.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1875625.Critical_Mass 3.43 7 2768688 3.89 1117 109 22996 3.67 4758 383 1977 1802169 0345245865 9780345245861 0 <![CDATA[Slave Ship]]> http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1188552605m/1802169.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1188552605s/1802169.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1802169.Slave_Ship 4.20 5 22996 3.67 4758 383 1966 4813161 0394486773 9780394486772 2 <![CDATA[The Science Fiction Roll of Honor: An Anthology of Fiction & Nonfiction by Guests of Honor at World Science Fiction Conventions]]> http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1235761482m/4813161.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1235761482s/4813161.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4813161.The_Science_Fiction_Roll_of_Honor_An_Anthology_of_Fiction_Nonfiction_by_Guests_of_Honor_at_World_Science_Fiction_Conventions 3.83 6

Our Solar System remains, but this is too limited for dreams that insist on no boundaries...The writers represented in this imaginative anthology go well beyond the dream and speculate on a future still veiled behind the curtain of outer space. Some day, man will draw the curtain aside, but for now he has the universe, the galaxy, and the stars around us.

Ron Hubbard Presents The Best of Writers of the Future]]> http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1177952555m/744813.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1177952555s/744813.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/744813.L_Ron_Hubbard_Presents_The_Best_of_Writers_of_the_Future 4.50 4
As was L. Ron Hubbard's intention, many of these talents have gone on to become established writers. Now for the first time, sixteen creative stories from the first eight volumes that helped launch successful careers have been assembled, providing hours of reading entertainment—your ticket to spellbinding adventures across the galaxy.

The writers in this book include many you now know, who were—in most cases—first published in one of the earlier anthologies. These names include: James Alan Gardner, Karen Joy Fowler, Nina Kiriki Hoffman, Robert Reed, Dean Wesley Smith, Ray Aldridge, Jamil Nasir, M. Shayne Bell, Jo Beverley, Leonard Carpenter, J.R. Dunn, Nancy Farmer, Astrid Julian, Michael H. Payne, Bruce Holland Rogers and Dave Wolverton.

This first-rate collection includes works from judges Anne McCaffrey, Frederick Pohl and Tim Powers, who if given the opportunity to enter this contest at the inception of their careers, would have done so with these well-told tales. Also included are invaluable tips on writing from Frank Herbert and Algis Budrys.

"Writers of the Future is a terrific program for new writers, and goodness knows, there are few enough of those. It has my heartiest support and unqualified recommendation." —Terry Brooks

"This contest has found some of the best new writers of the last decade." —Kristine Kathryn Rusch

"This has become a major tributary to the new blood in fantastic fiction." —Gregory Benford

To celebrate the 30th anniversary of DAW Books, editors Betsy Wollheim and Sheila Gilbert asked each and every author published by DAW thoughout its history if they would like to contribute a new story for a special commemorative anthology.

The response was overwhelming. So overwhelming, in fact, that the contributions will be published in not one but two volumes—one for the fantasy stories and one for the science fiction—featuring the most acclaimed, award-winning, best-selling names in any genre.
