Callahan's Lady
Welcome to Lady Sally's, the House that is a home - the internationally (hell, interplanetarily) notorious bordello in darkest Brooklyn.
Lady Sally McGee, employer of some of the most unusual and talented performing artists ever to work in the field of hedonic interface, designed her House to be an 'equal opportunity enjoyer,' discreetly, tastefully and joyfully catering to all erotic tastes, however unusual.
Like her husband, Callahan's Lady doesn't even insist that her customers be human... as long as they have good manners.

Time Pressure
Life in Nova Scotia in the early '70s had just about everything your average hippie could hope for: beautiful scenery, tolerant locals, lots of other hippies and lots of drugs.
So thinks Sam Meade, a guitar-playing American refugee from the Vietnam War draft, who is well on his way to becoming a hermit in his cabin, "Heartbreak Hotel."
But all that changes when Sam discovers a beautiful naked woman asleep in his woods during a blizzard. Partly because he is an avid science fiction reader, and partly because he can find no other explanation for her behavior, Meade is convinced she is a time traveler and prepares himself and his best friend Snaker for the moment she regains consciousness.

Callahan's Secret
The third volume in the Callahan's Place series, and the last to actually be set in Callahan's Place - for reasons which will be obvious by the end of the book.
(Robinson once intended it to be the last Callahan book ever... but you readers had other ideas.)
It introduces Mike and Lady Sally's extraordinary daughter Mary, and recounts the first time that Jake and his friends were required to save the world.

Night Of Power
One of Spider's most requested and most controversial novels has finally beeen restored to print after an absence of two decades.
Written in 1984 (the year the Macintosh was introduced) as speculative prophecy for the then-far-distant year 1996, it depicts a horrific all-out black/white racewar in Manhattan that didn't happen.... yet.... seen through the eyes of an interracial family visiting from Canada.
Robinson notes, "The military strategy used by Michael and his friends in this book is for real, the Commandant of the NYC Marine Corps detachment told me it would probably work... and there's no reason why it wouldn't work just as well today for real-world foreign terrorists as it did for my fictional revolutionaries. Better, actually - they didn't have cellphones, computers or the internet."

Time Travelers Strictly Cash
The second of three books in the original Callahan's Place series.... sort of.
That is, it was supposed to be... but then when the deadline came round, it happened that there were only half a book's worth of new Callahan's stories written.
"So I filled out the book with non-Callahan short stories - some of my best work, as it happens - and a few odds and ends," recalls Spider.
As hardcore fans know, 1981 Ace first editions of this book can be identified by the typo on the title page, which puts two I's in TIIME.
