Description
Gateway by Frederik Pohl is a gripping space opera that presents a stark choice: wealth or death. In a resource-starved future, humans have discovered an artificial spaceport, the Heechee, which offers a chance to explore the unknown via preprogrammed interstellar ships. However, the risks are high, and the outcome is far from certain. Some pilots have returned with life-changing discoveries, while others have lost everything. The Heechee spaceport is a game of Russian roulette, where the stakes are high and the rewards are uncertain. For those willing to take the risk, the potential rewards are immense. This novel marks the beginning of Frederik Pohl's Heechee saga, a space operatic series that explores the intersection of humanity and technology in a vast, uncharted universe.
