Hard to believe that *all* of Edgar Pangborn is out of print. Luckily the publishing empire of Old Earth books has acquired reprint rights to *all* of Pangborn. And this is the first of the reprints.

A great novel of first contact, Pangborn's first SF novel and he only got better.


Genre: Science Fiction

Praise for this book

"Edgar Pangborn was one of the greatest American science fiction writers, who established along with Bradbury, Sturgeon, Miller and Cordwainer Smith a poetic, beautifully human style od science fiction. Pangborn's evocative landscapes and intense emotional situations combine to give all his novels a mysterious and powerful beauty. He was a true artist and bringing his work back into print in this way is a great moment for American Literature." - Kim Stanley Robinson
