The World Turned Upside Down
GET READY FOR A GIANT, MIND-EXPANDING DOSE
OF THE BEST SCIENCE FICTION EVER WRITTEN
BY THE GREATES SCIENCE FICTION WRITERS OF ALL
TIME!

When readers first encounter science fiction, they find adventures
on other planets and in future worlds, explorations of future
technology and its implications, and extrapolations of social trends
and warnings of where they may lead—but they also encounter
concepts heretofore undreamed of, and the impact on the readers’
thinking does nothing less than turn their world upside down.

Now, David Drake, Jim Baen and Eric Flint gather together some
of the greatest science fiction ever written in one volume, with each
story chosen for a startling breakthrough concept which left
readers stunned and changed the course of science fiction.

In the Golden Age of science fiction, the science fiction magazines
weren’t given titles such as Astounding, Amazing, Startling, etc., for
nothing! Pick up this generous serving of the very best of science
fiction and prepared to be astounded, amazed, startled—and
entertained.
