Spine slanted, creased, sunned, corners bumped, minor edge wear and rubbing, text clean and unmarked. A solid copy. ; Galactic Empire; 6" - 7" Tall; 231 pages; Set in our far future, but in the distant past of Asimov's Foundation series, Earth's crust is mostly radioactive. Reviled by the rest of the Galaxy, its inhabitants considered nearly subhuman, only a scant portion of Earth is fertile. To limit population, every Earthman is euthanized at age 60.
Joseph Schwartz steps through a time warp and is transported from 1949 Chicago to this future Earth. He is 62 and thus automatically a fugitive from the Sixty. Given an experimental mind treatment, Schwartz develops the power to read other people's minds -- and manipulate them. As a result, he discovers a plot by fanatical Earthmen to release a deadly virus that will destroy civilization throughout the Galaxy, except for Earth. The problem is, no one will believe him . . .
