Every science-fiction story is a voyage of some kind--to a world of a
far-off galaxy, to our own world of the distant future or the remote
past, to some interior corner of the human soul. In VOYAGERS: Twelve
Journeys through Space and Time, Science Fiction Grand Master Robert
Silverberg collects twelve of his finest short stories and novellas, all
of which carry readers to the next level of imagination and into a new
universe of the mind. This new collection spans 60 years of work by the
Hugo Award-winning Silverberg, traveling from one end of the universe to
the other, from the dawn of time to its final hours. A journey through
its pages reveals time-travelers from the future come back to witness a
catastrophe of our own time, Spanish conquistadores looking for--and
finding--the Fountain of Youth, a tourist in Mexico stepping into an
alternative universe, and spacefarers among the stars making a
surprising discovery. The range of these stories, the kinds of voyages
they describe, just begins to demonstrate the scope of science fiction,
and the lengths to which Silverberg's sparkling imagination can leap.
