ENTER DOMINIC FLANDRY – THE JAMES BOND OF SCIENCE FICTION

It is the twilight of the Terran Empire. The warriors who made it great are long gone now, and the traders of the Polesotechnic League who made it possible are the dimly-remembered stuff of legend. Alien enemies prowl its outer precincts, and Sector Governors conspire for the Throne of Man. On Terra herself, those who occupy the labyrinthine corridors of power busy themselves with trivialities and internal politics, as outside the final darkness gathers.

In this scene of terminal disarray one man stands like a giant: Dominic Flandry, Agent of the Terran Empire. In three full-length novels, he will rise from young ensign to lieutenant commander as he outthinks rivals and thwarts adversaries, blazing a trail across the galaxy in defense of an Empire which barely appreciates him and against alien enemies who appreciate him all too well.

This is the fourth volume in the first complete edition of Poul Anderson's Technic Civilization saga.

Praise for Poul Anderson:

"One of science fiction's giants." – Arthur C. Clarke

"A Master!" – Robert Jordan

"Poul Anderson immerses you in the future. . . . Anderson puts you into a whole new world." – Larry Niven

"These are stories of the classic science fiction tradition: hard science and tough characters in logically well integrated action stories." – Jerry Pournelle

"Poul Anderson . . . probably does more different things extremely well than anybody else in the field. A thorough grasp of language, history, science, and the human spirit make him a possession for all time, as the saying goes." – Harry Turtledove

"The winner of seven Hugos and three Nebulas . . . one of the towering figures of modern SF and fantasy." – Publishers Weekly
