THE LONG NIGHT COMES – AND AFTER IT, A NEW DREAM

Sir Dominic Flandry is now an admiral, but takes little joy in his new rank. He sees the rot in the Terran Empire on every hand and knows that the Long Night will inevitably fall upon the galaxy. His consolation is that measures he has taken while fighting to postpone the final collapse may shorten the coming galactic dark age and hasten the rise of a new interstellar civilization. In the meantime, he'll always be ready for one more battle against the Empire's enemies.

This concluding volume of the Technic Civilization saga, one of the milestones of modem science fiction, includes two full-length novels:

A Stone in Heaven – When the daughter of Flandry's mentor asks for help, he intervenes to thwart a would-be dictator's plans to seize control of the Empire.

The Game of Empire – Flandry's daughter, Diana, and her felinelike alien friend have discovered a Merseian conspiracy against the Empire. Even with the help of her illustrious father, can they stop it in time?

Plus four novellas, all in this seventh volume of the first complete edition of Poul Anderson's Technic Civilization saga.

Praise for Poul Anderson:

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

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