In 1977 Frederik Pohl stunned the science-fiction world with the publication of Gateway, one of the most brilliantly interesting SF novels ever. Gateway was a best retailer and won science fiction's triple crown: the Hugo, Nebula, and John W. Campbell Memorial prizes for best novel. Now, more than 25 years later, Pohl has completed a new novel set in the Gateway universe. The Boy WHO Live Forever has a sense of wonder and enjoyment that will gratify those who loved Gateway and will joy new listeners as well. In Gateway, long following the alien Heechee abandoned their space-station, Gateway (as humans dubbed it) allowed humans to explore new worlds. The Heechee, alarmed by the alien Kugel whose goal was to destroy all organic and natural lifeforms, had already retreated to the galactic main, where they now lived in calmness. Now, in The Guy WHO Live Forever, humans with dreams of life one of the stars are getting started with the Heechee at the main, to live on there along with those humans and Heechee whose physical systems have passed on but have had their imagination stored in electronic digital memory so that their knowledge moves down through the age range .Their calmness is threatened by the Kugel, who may yet strike the main. But a much greater menace is the individuals Wan Enrique Santos-Smith, whose blind loathing of the Heechee fuels an insane desire to destroy them and, incidentally, every living being in the galaxy. Stan and Estrella, two teenagers from Earth, visited Gateway looking for trip, and found one another. They settle one of the Heechee on Forested Planet of Warm Old Celebrity Twenty-Four, never suspecting that they may be the last best hope to save the galaxy. But with allies like Gelle-Klara Moynlin (one of the galaxy's richest women, who isn't content to only need money, but would like to make use of her wealth once and for all) and machine brain Marc Antony (an excellent chef to thousands of living and stored clients), they are really destined to cope with Wan's awful plan. Frederik Pohl has woven along the lives of the and other memorable people to create a masterful new novel.
