Synopsis
Far Horizons is an anthology of 11 science fiction short stories or novellas by major authors, who also provide introductions and sometimes afterwords for the stories; it is edited by Robert Silverberg. All of the stories make their first appearance in Far Horizons, but none are truly "original" in a sense, as they are all set in one of the particular author's most popular tried and true fictional universes.
