The first novel, "The Syndic," is a futuristic adventure tale by the highly respected sci-fi author, C. M. Kornbluth. Was this the America of the future? Here is a shocking but realistic picture of America in the far future-a wild chaotic America, but a very possible America.

There have been a thousand tales of future Utopias and possible civilizations. Join legendary sci-fi author C. M. Kornbluth as he takes you into a future where America is ruled by the Mob. The second novel, "Flight to Forever," is a top-flight time travel novel. It features a man pitted against the limitless wastes of Time. A man who fought the strange, inhuman civilizations of Earth's unguess¬able future, searching hopelessly among the never-ending tomorrows for the road to one unforgettable yesterday! Here is a memorable time travel adventure novel by one of the most heralded sci-fi authors of all time, Poul Anderson.

About Poul Anderson
Poul Anderson (1926-2001) grew up bilingual in a Danish American family. After discovering science fiction fandom and earning a physics degree at the University of Minnesota, he found writing science fiction more satisfactory. Admired for his "hard" science fiction, mysteries, historical novels, and "fantasy with rivets," he also excelled in humor. He was the guest of honor at the 1959 World Science Fiction Convention and at many similar events, including the 1998 Contact Japan 3 and the 1999 Strannik Conference in Saint Petersburg, Russia. Besides winning the Hugo and Nebula Awards, he has received the Gandalf, Seiun, and Strannik, or "Wanderer," Awards. A founder of the Science Fiction & Fantasy Writers of America, he became a Grand Master, and was inducted into the Science Fiction and Fantasy Hall of Fame.
