Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. WINNER OF THE HUGO AND NEBULA AWARDS. Seeded among the stars are troves of valuable artifacts left behind by the enigmatic, long-vanished alien race called the Heechee. For the right price, anyone can climb aboard one of the abandoned Heechee spaceships, castoff on an autopilot voyage to parts unknown, and take a chance on finding wealth . . . or facing death. Robinette Broadhead took that chance and walked away a winner. But at what cost? Despite living a millionaire's life of material luxury, he's haunted by crippling despair?and the dark secrets buried deep in his psyche. With the help of his computerized psychiatrist, the truth about what happened "out there" could set Broadhead free. But only after a personal journey more terrifying and, ultimately, more devastating than his last fateful trip into space. Trade edition. First edition, first printing thus. This is a used book. Pages are clean and bright with no markings, notes, or highlighting. Covers show shelf wear and are not creased. No owner's marks or bookplates, not ex-library. Price tag on front cover and inside front cover. Binding is tight and square. Corners lightly bumped. An excellent reading copy.
