FREDERIK POHL - GEBRAUCHT GATEWAY THE BEST OF T...

Wealth ... or death. Those were the choices Gateway offered. Humans had discovered this
artificial spaceport  full of working interstellar ships left behind by the mysterious 
vanished Heechee.   Their destinations are preprogrammed. They are easy to operate  but
impossible to control. Some came back with discoveries which made their intrepid pilots rich 
others returned with their remains barely identifiable. It was the ultimate game of Russian
roulette  but in this resource-starved future there was no shortage of desperate volunteers.  
Winner of the Hugo  Locus  Nebula and John W. Campbell awards  Gateway begins Pohl's space
operatic Heechee saga. He was hugely influential in SF as an author but also an agent and
editor  and his career spanned decades.   'A masterpiece of the genre' - Tordotcom  ' Gateway
deserves its reputation as a classic' - Gareth L. Powell 'One of the best Hugo winners I have
read' - Guardian   Welcome to The Best Of The Masterworks: a selection of the finest in science
fiction
