Classic sci-fi stories like Poul Anderson's The Chapter Ends will always be around in some form, not only because of their remarkable cultural and symbolic value for anyone who enjoys a good story about future Earth and interstellar travel, but also because of the amazing, genuine curiosity and highly imaginative premises they express.Poul Anderson was a bestselling science fiction writer with plenty of well-known titles in his portfolio. Brain Wave and The Boat of a Million Years are just a couple of the numerous exciting tales that brought to life entire universes and mysterious worlds ready to dazzle explorers with their obscure beauty. Anderson won just about every award related to the science fiction genre, and enjoyed a lengthy career of half a century.The Chapter Ends is a book published in 1954, and it has to do with the implications of the hypothetical time when humans would eventually leave planet Earth for good. Set tens of thousands of years in our future, it envisions a universe in which the human race already conquered the stars, as the last few millions of people living on Earth are being forced to relocate to a different planet. But what will their eventual choice be? Also, what does this really mean for Earth and for the heritage of human beings everywhere? Like many of his early works, The Chapter Ends reflects upon Anderson's remarkable ability to create stories that are not only entertaining, but also bring deep, thought-provoking issues to the table.
