Science Fiction Giveaway #2 is three great hard SF books. I learned from the last giveaway that my readers want hard SF. The three books below are in excellent condition and are very collectible.

Even if you won last time you can put your bid in for one of these books. I will ship the books out at my expense in the week after the contest closes.

I will announce the winners of the last contest tomorrow. Everyone who enters gets something. I will pick some good books from my collection for the runner ups. I can’t guarantee that I’ll do that again, especially if I get a good response this time.

Next time will be three fantasy books, probably by Andre Norton, Fritz Leiber and/or L. Sprague de Camp.

A nice 1961 edition of one of the great books of the Golden Age. It is the story of a telepathic mutant living among humans. Van Vogt’s Slan simply changed the face of Science Fiction. It was one of John W. Campbell, Jr.’s first purchases at Astounding Stories, and set the tone for the Golden Age. Wonderful Cover.	This is a collection of 8 short stories by one of the best writers in SF. These are great SF stories. Harry Harrison is known for books like The Stainless Steel Rat and Deathworld, but in these stories he really pushes the limit of Hard Science Fiction.	This 1965 first paperback printing of the two part Orphans of the Sky is classic Heinlein. It is the story of a generational ship traveling between the stars for hundreds of years that has forgotten its mission. I have read and re-read this book and I think it is one of the Grand Master of Science Fiction’s best.
Slan by A.E. Van Vogt 1940	The War With the Robots, by Harry Harrison, 1962	Orphans of the Sky, by Robert A. Heinlein, 1941
