Author Index S	Charles Sheffield
Title Index The	The Web Between the Worlds


Year	1979
Publisher	Arrow Books (Sidgwick and Jackson)
ISBN	0099266709

Synopsis	Rob Merlin was the builder of the world's largest bridge - the best engineer who had ever lived - and Darius Regulo had to have him. For what Regulo had in mind was a project that would dwarf everything that had gone before, something that would make the greatest of man's achievements seem insignificant: a bridge between Earth and space - a beanstalk that mankind could climb to the stars.

Review	The Web Between the Worlds is a breathtaking novel of a vision that could become reality, by the author Publishers Weekly described as 'one of the most imaginative, exciting talents to appear on the Science Fiction scene in recent years'.
