Annotation Computer genius Carl Lewis has invented the "Cyberbook " an electronic device that instantly and inexpensively brings the written word to the masses. But not everyone warms to Carl's ideas. Add corporate spies authors threatening to strike and a wave of mysterious murders and you have Ben Bova at his best. Library Journal A research scientist threatens to revolutionize the publishing industry with his invention--the ``cyberbook''--and catapults himself into a world of vicious schemers in this satire on the convoluted world of publishing. Veteran sf author Bova takes aim at the near future in a slapstick comic-suspense novel suitable for large sf collections.-- JC Biography Born in Philadelphia Ben Bova worked as a newspaper reporter a technical editor for Project Vanguard the first American satellite program and a science writer and marketing manager for Avco Everett Research Laboratory before being appointed editor of Analog one of the leading science fiction magazines in 1971. After leaving Analog in 1978 he continued his editorial work in science fiction serving as fiction editor of Omni for several years and editing a number of anthologies and lines of books including the "Ben Bova Presents" series for Tor. He has won science fiction's Hugo Award for Best Editor six times. A published SF author from the late 1950s onward Bova is one of the field's leading writers of "hard SF" science fiction based on plausible science and engineering. Among his dozens of novels are Millennium The Kinsman Saga Colony Orion Peacekeepers Privateers and the Voyagers series. Much of his recent work including Mars Venus Jupiter Saturn The Precipice and The Rock Rats falls into the continuity he calls "The Grand Tour" a large-scale saga of the near-future exploration and development of our solar system. A President Emeritus of the National Space Society and a past president of Science-fiction and Fantasy Writers of America in 2001 Dr. Bova was elected a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science AAAS. He lives in Naples Florida with his wife the well-known literary agent Barbara Bova. TOR Books Hardcover

When Mac's best friend is kidnapped and her research facility attacked she reluctantly joins forces with the blue alien to unravel the mystery of the Ro -- but what she finds is more terrifying than she could've ever imagined. Plain and simple: This is Czerneda's best work to date. Paul Goat Allen From the Publisher When her Field Base is mysteriously attacked Dr. Mackenzie Connor must flee for her life.

Harvest the Fire
TOR 1995. Book. Illus. by Di Fate Vincent Interior Art. Fair. Hardcover. First Edition. 8vo - over 7�" - 9�" tall. Near-new condition. Stated First Edition. Price inside dustcover: $19.95. Number line: 0 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1. NO remainder marks or price clippings. Tight spine - Bright pages. 24 pages of interior art by Vincent Di Fate. 190 pages. NO writing marks or tears inside book. - Poul Anderson a legend of SF is the writer whom the mantle of Robert A. Heinlein descended upon. Anderson devoted his career to the visionary enterprise of creating science fiction set in a carefully extrapolated human society of the future in the spirit of Heinlein. Nowhere does he succeed more powerfully than in the works set in the future history that began in Harvest of Stars continued in The Stars Are Also Fire and now leaps into the distant future in Harvest the Fire. This is no less than the tale of the expansion of humanity to the limits of the solar system and beyond. It also chronicles the evolution of machine intelligence until humans and machines come into conflict in an age when the outward urge and the urge to change are the chief barriers to utopia for many humans--and for their machines. Harvest the Fire is the story of politics and poetry: of a poet Jesse Nicol who aspires to great work in an era when human literary greatness is apparently all in the past who travels to the Moon and falls in love with a beautiful revolutionary Falaire--a woman determined to escape from the care of machines. For the machines are now the masters of humanity and the great work of Falaire is freedom which must be stolen from the machines. With the precision and clear focus of a master Poul Anderson tells a sharp and poignant tale against an epic interplanetary background. Harvest the Fire is hard SF raised to the intensity of poetry.

SecGen Nicholas Seafort is the most powerfull man on Earth.

Until the night a terrorist bomb rips his life apart. Even as the Senate and the Navy demand that Seafort declare martial law Seafort's son Philip confronts his father with the results of his stubborn course. Seafort has fought to protect humanity by diverting resources to ever larger more heavily armed starships - while global ecological collapse has turned Earth into a horror of barren ravaged countryside and toxic swamps.

NO writing marks or tears inside book. - A renowned nuclear weapons researcher is not only dead - he's been charred to a radioactive cinder. The incinerated remnants of Dr. Gregory are found curled in the corner of his laboratory at the Edward Teller Nuclear Research Facility near Oakland California. Since this is a death on Federal property Mulder and Scully are hastily called in. As FBI agents who specialize in unexplained phenomena they are the investigators of the X-Files strange and inexplicable cases which are also mysteries that the FBI doesn't want solved. Dr. Gregory's unique death quickly and clearly becomes an X-File. As Mulder and Scully begin their frustrating work unearthing the top secret project that Dr. Gregory was working on they confront a tight-lipped Federal bureaucracy whose job it is to stop questions before they are asked. One by one Mulder and Scully hit dead ends closed security clearances and classified documents that no one wants them to see. But that doesn't stop Mulder and Scully from ripping the lid off Dr. Gregory's illegal project - "Bright Anvil" - a new type of flash nuclear explosive that has all the destructive power of the Hiroshima and Nagasaki atomic bombs but with a new design that leaves virtually no radioactive fallout. The implications for the modern world are deadly and some radical protest groups will stop at nothing to prevent the test from happening. When a second victim completely unrelated to nuclear science or Dr. Gregory is obliterated in the New Mexico desert and then a third dies the same way in Washington D.C. Mulder and Scully begin to focus on the frightening dimensions of their task. The bizarre deaths cannot be a coincidence. And as they work to uncover the secret unifying element that unites these deaths it becomes clear that this twisted puzzle has fatal consequences for the entire world. Harper Prism Hardcover

Stated First HarperPrism printing December 1995 Price inside dustcover: $20.00. NO remainder marks or price clippings - Tight spine - 290 pages. NO writing marks or tears inside book. - A renowned nuclear weapons researcher is not only dead - he's been charred to a radioactive cinder. The incinerated remnants of Dr. Gregory are found curled in the corner of his laboratory at the Edward Teller Nuclear Research Facility near Oakland California. Since this is a death on Federal property Mulder and Scully are hastily called in. As FBI agents who specialize in unexplained phenomena they are the investigators of the X-Files strange and inexplicable cases which are also mysteries that the FBI doesn't want solved. Dr. Gregory's unique death quickly and clearly becomes an X-File. As Mulder and Scully begin their frustrating work unearthing the top secret project that Dr. Gregory was working on they confront a tight-lipped Federal bureaucracy whose job it is to stop questions before they are asked. One by one Mulder and Scully hit dead ends closed security clearances and classified documents that no one wants them to see. But that doesn't stop Mulder and Scully from ripping the lid off Dr. Gregory's illegal project - "Bright Anvil" - a new type of flash nuclear explosive that has all the destructive power of the Hiroshima and Nagasaki atomic bombs but with a new design that leaves virtually no radioactive fallout. The implications for the modern world are deadly and some radical protest groups will stop at nothing to prevent the test from happening. When a second victim completely unrelated to nuclear science or Dr. Gregory is obliterated in the New Mexico desert and then a third dies the same way in Washington D.C. Mulder and Scully begin to focus on the frightening dimensions of their task. The bizarre deaths cannot be a coincidence. And as they work to uncover the secret unifying element that unites these deaths it becomes clear that this twisted puzzle has fatal consequences for the entire world. Harper Prism Hardcover
