Quote:Beyond 2001! The Far-Out Future

By the twenty-first century, the great power struggle on Earth had been resolved in the only possible way. The United States, Russia, and China all have fallen by the wayside, and Brazil has assumed her rightful place as world leader. Thus it is naturally Brazil that conducts the first interstellar explorations, and creates the great space transport system, the Viagens Interplanetaries, to extend her galactic conquests and hold her vast and growing empire together...

--An interstellar conspiracy to gain control of a brand new continent on Earth.
--The Old Wild West transported intact into the Brave New World of the distant galactic colonies.
--A primitive race in a far-off solar system gaining control of supertechnology and using it for their own weird purposes.
--A strange civilization that takes very seriously the idea "you are what you eat."
--Super-mod fashions in the status-mad society of outer space.

Collected in one volume, these tales form the amazing chronicle of the Age of Viagens--one of the most remarkable sf achievements of all time.
