4.06 (47,131 ratings by Goodreads)
A Paperback by

Wealth ... or death. Those were the choices Gateway offered. Humans haddiscovered this artificial spaceport, full of working interstellar shipsleft behind by the mysterious, vanished Heechee.

Theirdestinations are preprogrammed. They are easy to operate, but impossibleto control. Some came back with discoveries which made their intrepidpilots rich; others returned with their remains barely identifiable. Itwas the ultimate game of Russian roulette, but in this resource-starvedfuture there was no shortage of desperate volunteers.

Winner of the Hugo, Locus, Nebula and John W. Campbell awards, Gatewaybegins Pohl's space operatic Heechee saga. He was hugely influential inSF as an author but also an agent and editor, and his career spanneddecades.
