A collection of material not here-to-fore published in the Gateway Canon. Read for completeness, and not very inspiring. ( )

More a collection of short stories than a coherent novel. The real meat of the book is 100+ pages of "The Merchants of Venus". The rest of the "chapters" are hit and miss. I picked it up at a used bookstore and had no idea that it was background material for a whole Heechee series. I'll definitely pick up at least one more book about the Heechee.
