The first book in an ambitious republication of the Hugo Award winning writer, editor comic book and radio script author.<\/p>\n

\u201cPeople have forgotten how much Gold had to do, as a writer, with the growth of science fiction[...] [He possesses] an alert and unusual mind investing old ideas with new insights and adds an extra dimension of idea into a deceptively simple story line.\u201d \u2014Fantastic Universe<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cUsusual tales, rare collectors items.\u201d \u2014Indianapolis Star<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cGold,\u201d the story of a man who made everything so cheaply everything could be purchased for nothing and there was no need for greed \u2013 but what of the greedy?<\/p>\n

And three more \u201ctop-rank stories.\u201d \u2014Analog\/Astounding<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\r\n \r\n \t\t\r\n\t\t\r\n
