About this ebook
Super-science, Weirdness and Wonder!
Jack Vance. Gene Wolfe. Cordwainer Smith. If you like your SF evocative and full of amazingly bizarre ideas that recall the best of such writers, you're gonna love Mark Geston! First, the remnants of humanity attempt to build a cathedral-like spaceship to flee a devastated Earth—but are we still at the mercy of the dark forces that brought on the first apocalypse Next, it's been an 800-year battle after the invasion of Earth by transdimensional magic-users. Now humans finally grasp the secrets of thaumaturgy and are ready to turn it against their foes! Finally, a young prophet faces down a super-science Armageddon in a weirdly-baroque far future. Three Geston novels of startling imagination and strangeness, together for the first time!

About the author
Eric Flint is the author of the New York Times best seller 1634: The Galileo Affair (with Andrew Dennis)†a novel in his top-selling "Ring of Fire" alternate history series. His first novel for Baen, Mother of Demons, was picked by Science Fiction Chronicle as a best novel of the year. His 1632, which launched the Ring of Fire series, won widespread critical praise, as from Publishers Weekly, which called him "an SF author of particular note, one who can entertain and edify in equal, and major measure." A longtime labor union activist with a master's degree in history, he currently resides in northwest Indiana with his wife Lucille.
