The Stonehenge Gate

In a basement in New Mexico, four poker buddies and amateur adventurers who have discovered a dark mystery buried beneath the sands of the Sahara desert decide to do something about it. In the deep Sahara, they find an ancient artifact that will change their lives and the world, forever'¦ a gateway between planets that links Earth to distant worlds where they discover wonders and terrors beyond their wildest imagination. Jack Williamson, the dean of science fiction writers, masterfully weaves an exciting tale that takes the friends to the far corners of the universe. While one leads an oppressed people towards freedom, another uncovers clues that could identify a long-dormant super-advanced civilization of immortal beings, and the key to the origin of life on Earth.

Jack Williamson published his first short story in 1928, and he's been producing entertaining, thought-provoking science fiction ever since. A Hugo and Nebula Award-winner, he was the second person named Grand Master by the Science Fiction Writers of America. Williamson was the first to write fiction about genetic engineering and terraforming, terms he himself coined. A Renaissance man whose work spans SF, fantasy, and horror, Williamson lives in Portales, New Mexico.
