Synopsis
An omnibus of Malzberg's fiction about science fiction and science fiction writing. Includes the novels Dwellers of the Deep, Gather in the Hall of the Planets, and Herovit's World, along with ten shorter works.
This collection contains over 170,000 words of some of the funniest and most biting science fiction ever written-science fiction stories that question the very values and dreams of the field.
"It was the stories that comprise this book that made Malzberg the center of controversy... even more than his award-winning Beyond Apollo." --Mike Resnick, in the introduction to this collection
