Silverberg:
Tower
of Glass
Simeon
Krug's obsession was to build a tower of glass
pointing toward a star in Aquarius, reaching out
to answer the voice from space. The Androids were
Krug's tools, and he was their God. He had created
them. And they would inherit the earth. So they
labored to build his tower. And Krug, full of
passion, waited for his great monument--when the
tower would soar toward heaven, and he would speak
to the stars.
"In Tower of Glass Silverberg surpasses himself.
This is a multi-leveled work of high adventure,
considerable tension and--most important--social
consciousness." --Harlan Ellison
