In the fourth year of the restoration of the Coronal Lord Valentine a great mischief has come over the soul of the boy Hissune, a clerk in the House of Records of the Labyrinth of Majipoor. These documents had been allowed to fall into disarray, no doubt for good reason, and now some malevolent destiny has chosen Hissune to put them to rights. So far as Hissune can see it is useless work, except that he will have a fine geography lesson, a vivid experience of the hugeness of Majipoor.

Yakoub is the king of the Rom, the ancient Gypsy race of humans who have evolved from the days of caravans into lords of the spaceways, the only pilots capable of steering ships safely between the many worlds of the galaxy. Convinced that his people have lost their way, and determined to return them to their ancestral home of Romany Star, Yakoub has "retired" that they might realize their need of him. Living in exile on an icy world, he is visited by three companions (some only in astral form) who each entreat him to return and take up his throne. But when the king comes out of retirement, he finds himself embroiled in a power struggle, not only over the Romany throne, but over the fate of the entire galactic empire as well. Told as a rollicking first person narrative, Star of Gypsies is a charming and imaginative Space Opera adventure recounted in classic Silverberg style.

When Maude Chambliss first arrives at Retreat, the seasonal home of her husband's aristocratic family, she is a nineteen-year-old bride fresh from South /Carolinas' Low Country. Among the patrician men and women who reside in the summer colony on the coast of Main, her gypsy-like beauty and impulsive behavior immediately brand her an outsider. She, as well as everyone else, is certain she will never fit in. And of course, she doesn't...at first. But over the many summers she spends there Maude comes to cherish life in the colony, as she does the people who share it with her. There is her husband Peter, consumed with a darkness of spirit; her adored but dangerously fragile children; her domineering mother-in-law, who teachers that it is the women who posses the strength to keep the colony intact; and Maine native Micah Willis, who is ultimately Maudes's truest friend.

Science fiction and fantasy have often gotten a bad rap from critics who consider them "escapist," "pulp, " and "for kids": views that fail to consider many remarkable works that not only stand as novels of remarkable literary merit on their own, but do credit to their genre of choice. By way of refuting these misconceptions, I examine particular novels in depth and expound on the strengths of these books versus the arguments of particular critics, and conceptions of what it means to be "literary."
