Synopsis
Ben Bova's universe is always more than the sum of its parts...
In TWICE SEVEN, "Conspiracy Theory" reveals the startling truth about those so-called Martian canals and a patch of New Mexico know as Roswell.
In "Appointment in Sinai," the technology of virtual telepresence allows people all over the world to share the experience of the first manned Mars landing... with results as poignant as they are unexpected.
An amnesiac android finds himself feasting with King Hrothgar, Queen Wealhtheow and a warrior by the name of Beowulf in "Legendary Heroes."
In "Life as We Know It," the eternal question "Are we alone?" gets a startling, never-to-be-forgotten answer.
An expatriate woman with a secret fights an exclusionary bureaucracy to return to her home and son in "Re-Entry Shock."
Plus much more!
