  Praise for Far Horizons 
   
  “Editor Silverberg here does for science fiction series what he did for fantasy sagas in Legends: Stories by the Masters of Modern Fantasy by presenting eleven noted authors of famous series, each exploring some aspect of theirs that they did not find a way of dealing with in the books of the series proper. . . . The stories remain true to their universes and characters, so they deliver good first-contact experiences for series novices as well as happy reading for longtime fans.” —Booklist 
   
  “A sampler of the best of the genre. Highly recommended for series fans and newcomers alike and a good choice for most sf collections.” —Library Journal 
   
  “An ideal combination of the reassuringly familiar and the excitingly new: should prove as popular as its fantasy predecessor.” —Kirkus Reviews

  You don’t go in the water. You don’t touch it. If you do, it will get you, drag you down, and you’re gone. 
  Harry Iskinder knows the rules: Don’t touch the water, or it will pull you under; conserve food, or you’ll run out at the worst time; use Sundered slaves gently, or they die too quickly to be worthwhile. 
  The Sundered create food. The Sundered create shelter. They’re also dying out. In a world lost to deadly flood that kills on contact, Harry thinks he knows the score, but when he claims the magnificent and powerful Sundered One named Aakesh, he quickly finds himself in deep and dangerous water.

  An escape—that's exactly what Birdie Devaine needs when witches around the world publicly announce their existence. 
   
   
   
  Instead of performing for the sold-out crowd at her world-famous magic show in Vegas, Birdie runs away from the dazzling lights to her hometown in Mississippi. Back to the town she swore off over a century ago. 
   
   
   
  She thinks she has it all planned out—keeping busy with renovating an old beautiful house and eventually fading away from the spotlight. But the house has its secrets, including the haunted cemetery that Birdie is now responsible for. It doesn't help when her nosy neighbor catches on to Birdie's big secret—that she's a true witch with real magical powers. 
   
   
   
  But when the busybody turns up dead on Birdie's new property, the former southern debutante becomes the prime suspect in the case. Cue the ladies of Witch Hazel Lane—a group of women who've stuck together for forty years. With their help, Birdie is on the hunt for the real killer. Will they help get her off the hook? Will Birdie's true nature stay secret? And what is she supposed to do with the stray dog that refuses to leave her house?

  "The writing is humorous, painful, awesome in its effect on both mind and heart…There are few modern novels to match it." —Rolling Stone 
  On an arid Mars, local bigwigs compete with Earth-bound interlopers to buy up land before the Un develops it and its value skyrockets. Martian Union leader Arnie Kott has an ace up his sleeve, though: an autistic boy named Manfred who seems to have the ability to see the future. In the hopes of gaining an advantage on a Martian real estate deal, powerful people force Manfred to send them into the future, where they can learn about development plans. But is Manfred sending them to the real future or one colored by his own dark and paranoid filter? As the time travelers are drawn into Manfred's dark worldview in both the future and present, the cost of doing business may drive them all insane.
