these stories trace man's expansion and colonization throughout the galaxy, completing an epic creation that stands beside Asimov's Foundation Trilogy.
Some good stories in this book.
A collection of 13 short stories written from 1964 to 1975. They are all connected in some way. It's a great read for earlier sci-fi fans.
I enjoyed this anthology of Known Space stories. I especially liked the stories "Wait it out," (set on Pluto), "At the Bottom of a Hole," (Muller discovers the truth behind the failure of a human settlement on Mars) and "The Borderland of Sol" (Julius Forward has a very dangerous weapon). I also like the timeline at the beginning of the book which sets the stories in context and the bibliography at the end.
