About the book
The virtual persona of a long-dead entrepreneur threatens to incite a revolution that could topple Earth's dictatorship in this science fiction classic.
In the future, individual freedom is a thing of the past. North America is a police state controlled by the Avantist government, a despotic, techno-religious ruling order that promises an impending transcendence for the oppressed. Space, however, remains free, thanks to Anson Guthrie's powerful Fireball Corporation. Guthrie's corporeal self died many generations ago, but his essence lives on, preserved forever in a computerized state that enables him to inspire his loyal employees and adherents to keep reaching for the farthest stars.
But now the totalitarian enemy, led by sadistic secret policeman Enrique Sayre, has gained possession of a Guthrie download, intending to subvert it to the Avantist cause, thereby breaking Fireball's hold on the cosmos. The corporation is doomed unless ace pilot Kyra Davis can smuggle a still-unreconstructed version of Guthrie out of enslaved America and rocket him to the moon and beyond, where Fireball's virtual creator can attempt to stoke the flames of revolution—and change the direction of his world.
A truly remarkable work, Harvest of Stars might be the most ingenious and ambitious novel of Poul Anderson's acclaimed and prolific career. Thoughtful and adventurous, rich in imagination and integrity, it offers definitive proof of the Hugo and Nebula Award–winning, Grand Master of Science Fiction's unparalleled mastery in the field of speculative fiction.

Our take
In Land With No Sun by Ted Arthurs (4.7 out of 5 stars), a Silver Star Command Sergeant Major recounts a year in Vietnam’s deadliest jungles.

Choose your retailer
About the book
Ted Arthurs didn’t watch the Vietnam War from afar—he lived every brutal, blistering moment of it. From May 1967 to May 1968, as Command Sergeant Major of an airborne infantry battalion, he carried eighty pounds of gear through the triple-canopy jungles of the Central Highlands, leading men through ambushes, monsoons, and the constant threat of death.
His unit was nicknamed the Fireball Brigade for a reason: they went where the fighting burned hottest. Arthurs’s mission was simple but impossible—bring as many of his eight hundred soldiers home alive as he could.
Land With No Sun is a raw, unflinching account of courage, leadership, and the human cost of war, told by a decorated soldier who survived it.
