"The force of sexual attraction multiplied by mathematical calculation in Fritz Leiber's mind-tickling tale of an other-worldly world for lovers only. The force of the human will to win in Gene Wolfe's spellbinding and scary story of man vs. machine in a perversely rigged game of life and death. The force of the last vestigial glow of a slain civilization in Brain W. Aldiss poignant, indelibly moving portrayal of life on a nightmare future earth. The force of the unfettered imagination and unleashed narrative power of eight of the finest science fiction writers of today--in the eagerly awaited new collection in the most renowned science fiction anthology series of our time, Terry Carr's Universe 7."--Pg. [4] of cover.

Millennia in the future, Earth has become a backwater planet, ignored by others in the galaxy. Its one jewel is Cirque - the city on the Abyss, a city of love and harmony, with inspiring religious rites. But in the Abyss there lives the Beast, formed from the castoff hates of the Cirquians: a beast whose body is refuse, whose mind is black as sin. Feeble weapons are no match for the Beast. And now, after centuries, it's climbing out of the Abyss to claim its own...
