Первые два романа тетралогии «Калевала».

Carl Lempi had the nerve to talk back to his machine. That marked him for investigation in the sterile computer-run future of World-Fed. Carl's defiance turned out to be just one of innumerable breakdowns that were rapidly undermining the world's highest civilization.

But Fate - and the plans of a hidden race of star-descended men - had a special place for Carl Lempi. For his rebellion was the start of a quest, a journey back through the dimensions to the source of the world's yrouble - an outer-space antagonist hinted at in the oldest legends of mankind - and Carl, alone, was to hold the earth's last hope in his hands.

This is a novel that combines science-fiction with the great sweep of fantasy-adventure that marked the work of Kuttner and Burroughs ...and whic is based upon the ancient - yet strangely modern - prophecies of the Kalevala.

"Between the distant stars lay terror"

The Star Folk were an anachronism. Living in their cluster of giant ships far out in space, cut off from contact with their fellow humans, they were shrouded in mystery. Through the allegory of an ancient song, Joneny, an anthropology student, set out to unravel the mystery — and found a truth stranger than any allegory.
