Habitats

From the back cover of the DAW first edition: "Where people live determines their culture and ambitions. What then of times to come: the fabulous days of star flight, the furious days of interplanetary competition, the horrendous days of world disaster, or the weirdly wonderful days of epic changes undreamed of? In this astonishingly original anthology eleven brilliant science fiction writers have created eleven scenes of high adventure in future human habitations. Here is Stan Schmidt with an eternally downhill ski resort. Here's Ian Watson with a new Alexander the Great in the Arizona desert. Here's a starship of the Faithful bowing to a long lost Mecca. Here's a cosmic tree nourished by a comet. Here's marvels galore. Come, move in, you'll have a fantastic time!"
