| | 3. |  | Heechee Rendezvous
from Del Rey
Customer Review:
Book three of the trilogy... or is it?
What was heralded as the "finale to the Heechee Saga" and yet which ends with the characters pondering all the facets which were mentions yet left out in the meat of the plot. Some "finale!" But, I must say that Rendezvous lends a helping hand to the... more info

from Tor Science Fiction
Price: $7.99
Customer Review:
Personally, I think it's difficult to make much out of Frederik Pohl's THE OTHER END OF TIME largely because, come the inevitable Twilight Zone-ish conclusion in the last few paragraphs -- the book serves essentially as a 300-plus-page set-up for novels that could follow. As a result, there's very... more info

| | 8. |  | Gladiator at Law
from Baen
Customer Review:
I read this book when I was a teenager, nearly 50 years ago, and just finished re-reading it. It holds up surprisingly well for a half-century-old work of speculative fiction.
