Everything that lives contains within itself the seeds of its own destruction. It was the fate of the Assyrians and the Hittites, the Greeks and the Romans, the British and the Americans. And so it was for the Polesotechnic League and the Terran Empire. Conception, birth, growth, aging, death: This is the law of life, true for nations, worlds and stellar empires no less than for organisms. For the greatest and the smallest it is the same, differing on it in this: the greater the heights conquered, the greater the fall, the longer and darker the night that follows… The stories contained herein were first published as follows: “The Star Plunderer,” Planet Stories, 1952. “Outpost of Empire,” Galaxy, 1967. “A Tragedy of Errors” Galaxy, 1967. “The Sharing of Flesh,” Galaxy, 1968. Won Hugo and nominated for the Nebula Award for Best Novelette in 1969. “Starfog,” Analog, 1967.
