An outstandingly well-preserved copy (see photos) Edition / Printing Notes First Tor edition, first printing, December 1979; Tom Doherty Associates / Tor Books; ISBN 0-812-53544-8; 414 pages; Tor stated on spine and copyright page. Preceded by the Dell first paperback edition, October 1978 (Dell Quantum Science Fiction #12284, $1.95); the Tor edition is a distinct second paperback edition with its own printing history.Hugo Award Honorable Mention. Gordon R. Dickson (1923–2001) was inducted into the Science Fiction and Fantasy Hall of Fame in 2000. Black Gate This is among Tor Books' earliest mass market paperback releases — Tom Doherty Associates / Tor was founded in 1980, making a December 1979 printing one of the very first titles issued under the Tor imprint, of considerable interest to Tor Books collectors and bibliographers. No signatures or inscriptions. Brief Mankind has taken its first small step outward from Earth, leaving its footprints on the moon. The next step, perhaps in the closing years of the century, will be many times longer and more perilous — the leap to Mars. The Far Call is a master novelist's evocation of that epic step, of the men and women who unite to make it, of the tangled web of rivalry, stubbornness, greed, and indifference that threatens to prevent it, and of the driving need for humanity to complete it. Amazingly accurate in its portrayal of space exploration as an international effort, the book foreshadows the hard lessons learned in the Challenger and Columbia disasters. A Hugo Award Honorable Mention from a Science Fiction Hall of Fame inductee — and a first Tor edition from the very earliest days of one of science fiction's most important publishers.…

Descripción de la tienda

My late wife and I spent a lot of time accumulating books, especially during COVID. With her gone, the books are a reminder of her. Hence, it's time for me to Turn the Page.
