Lester del Rey (1915 - 1993) was a renowned American Science
Fiction writer in the Golden Age of Science Fiction. He was awarded
several Awards for his work in this field, including the Skylark
Award, the Balrog Special Award and the Grand Master Award for
lifetime achievement in science fiction and/or fantasy. This volume
contains six of his most compelling stories: Dead Ringer Let 'em
Breathe Space Pursuit Victory No Strings Attached Police Your
Planet
Summoned from Earth by magic, Dave Hanson finds himself embroiled
in the politics and engineering problems of an alternate Earth
named Terah . . . for Terah's sky has shattered, and he may be the
one man in all the universe who can restore it! But science and
sorcery, beautiful women, and fantastic monsters are just the
beginning of his problems . . .
Originally published in shorter form in "Beyond Fantasy
Fiction" in 1954, then expanded to novel length, here is Lester del
Rey's classic science-fantasy, "The Sky is Falling"!
This book, first published in 1980, is a guide to the major forces
in the subculture of science fiction. It analyses the history of
the field and the related developments, for instance the Bomb, that
have shaped the literature. It examines the complex of activity and
background tradition, the body of accepted beliefs and conventions,
and the ethics and values of the world of science fiction.
Bruce Gordon was an ex-fighter, ex-gambler, ex-cop, ex-reporter,
and now he was an ex-patriot of Earth. Security shipped him to Mars
with a knife, 100 credits, and a yellow card that meant no return.
A science fiction novel that would appeal to Mickey Spillane fans,
Police Your Planet features lots of violence, beatings, and blood.
But this isn't just a crime novel put into space; this is a hard SF
novel, and the terraforming of Mars is central to the story.
