<DIV>Tom Mishkin is piloting another routine supply flight when he hears an unusual noise and gets the distressing news: He&rsquo;s about to be stranded on a backward planet and forced to hike across unknown and probably hostile terrain to find a cache of spare parts and get going again. Mishkin&rsquo;s journey introduces him to strange aliens like a five-headed man-eating snake with Mob connections as his trek slowly warps into a metaphysical search for his soul and the meaning of human existence .&#160;.&#160;.<BR /> &#160;<BR /> From the very beginning of his career, Robert Sheckley was recognized by fans, reviewers, and fellow authors as a master storyteller and the wittiest satirist working in the science fiction field. Open Road is proud to republish his acclaimed body of work, with nearly thirty volumes of full-length fiction and short story collections. Rediscover, or discover for the first time, a master of science fiction who, according to the <I>New York Times</I>, was &ldquo;a precursor to Douglas Adams.&rdquo;</DIV>
