In 1870 the First Vatican Council vindicated the old Roman vision of an essentially unlimited monarchical authority residing in the pope, thus vanquishing an even older, conciliar, essentially constitutionalist ideal of church governance. This book reconstructs the half-millennial history of that rival and now largely forgotten tradition., 6, PERSONALLY SIGNED BY GEORGE R. R. MARTIN DIRECTLY TO THE FULL TITLE PAGE! Not a tip in. Not a bookplate. Wrapped in protective archival grade Mylar for years of worry free enjoyment. xteen all-new stories by science fiction s top talents, collected by bestselling author George R. R. Martin and multiple-award-winning editor Gardner Dozois From pulp adventures such as Edgar Rice Burroughs s Carson of Venus to classic short stories such as RayBradbury s The Long Rain to visionary novels such as C. S. Lewis s Perelandra, the planet Venus has loomed almost as large in the imaginations of science fiction writers as Earth s next-nearest neighbor, Mars. But while the Red Planet conjured up in Golden Age science fiction stories was a place of vast deserts and ruined cities, bright blue Venus was its polar opposite: a steamy, swampy jungle world with strange creatures lurking amidst the dripping vegetation. Alas, just as the last century s space probes exploded our dreams of Mars, so, too, did they shatter our romantic visions of Venus, revealing, instead of a lush paradise, a hellish world inimical to all life. But don t despair! This new anthology of sixteen original stories by some of science fiction s best writers edited by #1 New York Times bestselling author George R. R. Martin and award-winning editor Gardner Dozois turns back the clock to that more innocent time, before the hard-won knowledge of science vanquished the infinite possibilities of the imagination. Join our cast of award-winning contributors including Elizabeth Bear, David Brin, Joe Haldeman, Gwyneth Jones, Mike Resnick, Eleanor Arnason, Allen M. Steele, and more as we travel back in time to a planet that never was but should have been: a young, rain-drenched world of fabulous monsters and seductive mysteries.
