Informationen zum Autor Edited by Larry Niven Klappentext This omnibus edition brings back into print three classic volumes of stories by Larry Niven and other acclaimed authors, all working within Niven's acclaimed "Magic" universe: THE MAGIC GOES AWAY; THE MAGIC MAY RETURN; and MORE MAGIC. This fantasy realm is the basis for Larry Niven and Jerry Pournelle's THE BURNING CITY, as well as the forthcoming BURNING TOWER. THE MAGIC GOES AWAY contains twelve stories by Niven; THE MAGIC MAY RETURN contains one story by Niven and contributions by Fred Saberhagen, Dean Ing, Steven Barnes, Mildred Downey Broxon, and Poul Anderson; and MORE MAGIC contains two Niven stories and additional contributions by Bob Shaw, Dian Girard, and legendary author Roger Zelazny. Zusammenfassung Larry Niven created his popular "Magic Goes Away" universe in 1967, and it has been a source of delight and inspiration ever since. By asking the simple question, What if magic were a finite resource?, Niven brought to life a mesmerizing world of wonder and loss, of hope and despair. The success of his first story collection, The Magic Goes Away, birthed two sequel anthologies, The Magic May Return and More Magic. All three volumes are collected here for the first time, with stories by Niven himself, as well as contributions by such luminaries of fantasy as Roger Zelazny, Fred Saberhagen, Steven Barnes, and Poul Anderson. Featuring a brand-new introduction by Larry Niven, The Magic Goes Away Collection gives readers insight into the breathtaking world of Niven and Jerry Pournelle's The Burning City and Burning Tower and stands on its own as a landmark in fantasy fiction
