NOTES

Three science fiction novels from the Nebula Award-nominated author of The Hustler and The Color of Money. The Man Who Fell to Earth After his home planet is devastated by war, an alien disguised as a human comes to Earth on a mission to save his people. He begins amassing wealth needed to build a spacecraft to bring his people to join him, but his plans get sidelined when he descends into alcoholism. Mockingbird On a post-apocalyptic Earth where humanity has suffered devastating losses, people are drugged from childhood on, there is no art, and reading is illegal. A suicidal machine runs the world, while the passion between two humans provides the only hope for humankind. The Steps of the Sun When the world's richest man travels to the stars in search of the mineral wealth America needs to get it out of an energy crisis, he finds more than he bargains for-and gets more than he ever believed was possible
