For many of us, the Ace Double Novels of the .50s and .60s have long
been a source both of pleasure and nostalgia. This new double volume
from Subterranean Press stands squarely in that distinguished tradition,
offering a pair of colorful, fast-paced novelettes from one of the most
popular writers currently working in any genre: George R. R. Martin.

Starlady takes place on a planet called Thisrock and depicts a Darwinian
society populated by thieves, whores, cutthroats, pimps, and assorted
lost souls. It is a tale of love, loss, vengeance, and ambition written
with great economy of means, and with a narrative intensity that never,
ever lets up.

Fast-Friend takes a fresh new look at an enduring human dream: travel
to the stars. With consummate narrative skill, and with a visionary.s
sensibility, Martin tells an unforgettable story of longing and
transcendence, a story suffused with images at once beautiful and
terrifying, mysterious and profound.
