      About This Book

      Here is a majestic trilogy of the far future brought together in a single volume. Delany's brilliant panorama portrays advanced science and decayed society, a universe-wide canvas filled with rogues and saints of all races, not only human but those who fly, crawl, burrow or swim. Strangest of all is the Lord of the Flames, who could, destroy a world or hide in the soul of an insect--and could not be killed, because he had never lived.
