   Another jewel-like early work (1964) of Zelazny's is paired with an
original sequel. Both are set in a future in which the upper crust of the
upper crust (the Party Set) spends most of its time in cryogenic
suspension, emerging for only a few festive days a year. Their attenuated
lives spin down decades of real-time, falling ever further out of step with
the `real world' that worshipfully follows their adventures. These novellas
use adventure-and-conflict themes to explore the hedonistic isolation of
the Set, and its ultimate fate in a world evolved beyond what it can
understand. Ignore the dated touches in _Heart_ and enjoy.
