From: Laurence R Brothers <LAURENCE@SU-CSLI.ARPA> At the end of the last book in the reprinting of the Anthony Villiers novels by ACE, there was a note to be on the alert for THE GALACTIC PANTOGRAPH, supposedly a forthcoming book. That was a couple of years ago. Does anyone know whether Panshin ever finished the book, and if so, was it published anywhere? -Laurence -------

I spoke to Alexei Panshin at Boskone this year
(February, 1984) about the Villiers books. He said
that 'there would be five to seven of them eventually,
but that the Ace publications (now out-of-print)
were the only ones which had seen the light of day.'
*deep sigh*. Anybody know of a good source for the
out-of-print Panshin books? (I'd be happy
to pay postage, finders fees, etc. etc.)

Of course, that was a year and a half ago and the book hasn't appeared yet. It may be that Panshin wants to publish the book himself, under his Elephant Books imprint, and is waiting for a contract with Ace to run out or something. Wombat ihnp4!uiucdcs!uicsl!wombat
