DAW SF Books #208 / UW1252:- Contents: The Altar On Asconel / The Man From The Big Dark / The Wanton Of Argus:- Synopsis: Once there was a mighty empire spanning the stars. Once there had been great emperors ruling hundreds of inhabited planets, patrolling the star lanes with fleets of starcruisers, built to the perfection of a technology never before reached by man. And like all empires in human history, that one, the greatest of them all, declined and fell. Its colony worlds were left to themselves, falling into a galactic Dark Age of ignorance, barbarism, superstition. But they had one heritage in common - the imperial starships still functioned. They were self-repairing, foolproof, impervious, and obeyed the commands of any who reached their simplified controls. This is the basis of John Brunner's panoramic novel, three novels in one book: the saga of those who tried to climb out of the New Dark to a new Renaissance - with only the aging but still functioning starships to sustain their efforts:- (original cost $1.50).
