Originally serialised in 4 parts in Analog Science Fiction / Science Fact - October, November, December 1983 & January 1984:- Synopsis: For five centuries they had survived, descendants of the mutinous crew of the starship Discipline. The Earth, the State, even the Discipline were legend at best. The Smoke Ring was all they knew: an immense gaseous envelope formed around a neutron star and inhabited by free-fall life-forms, most of which were edible and all of which could fly. This was their Universe. But slowly, they began the long climb from barbarism: and somewhere, beyond the Smoke Ring, the Discipline and its cyborg 'adviser' neared the end of its 500-year wait:- Review(s): "The best work yet by one of the best in our business, 'The Integral Trees' is the most imaginative work I've seen in the last five years" - Jerry Pournelle / "Niven is a master of the odd surrounding and the strange alien. For pure escape science fiction, fast and furious, 'The Integral Trees' is practically ideal" - Locus:- (original cost £1.95). Seller Inventory # 18.003.00189
