"The force of sexual attraction multiplied by mathematical calculation in Fritz Leiber's mind-tickling tale of an other-worldly world for lovers only. The force of the human will to win in Gene Wolfe's spellbinding and scary story of man vs. machine in a perversely rigged game of life and death. The force of the last vestigial glow of a slain civilization in Brain W. Aldiss poignant, indelibly moving portrayal of life on a nightmare future earth. The force of the unfettered imagination and unleashed narrative power of eight of the finest science fiction writers of today--in the eagerly awaited new collection in the most renowned science fiction anthology series of our time, Terry Carr's Universe 7."--Pg. [4] of cover.
