Orbit 3

pre-ISBN book. OCLC: #41155987. Publisher Catalog ID: #S1608. Here is the third and most bizarre volume of the exciting new Orbit series - a superb and uncanny collection of SF stories, appearing for the first time in paperback, by the finest of today's SF writers.
In "Bramble Bush," Nebula Award winner Richard McKenna weaves a dazzling web of anthropology, symbology, anatomy - and magic. Richard Wilson contributes a moving variant on the "last man" theme; Doris Pitkin Buck explains "Why They Mobbed the White House," and Philip Jose Farmer warns, "Don't Wash the Carats."
Also included are stories by Joanna Russ (the third in the Alyx series), Gene Wolfe, Kate Wilhelm, James Sallis and John Jakes.
