Notes:
From the "About the Author" page in "The Siege of Eternity":
A mutliple Hugo and Nebula Award-winning author, Frederik Pohl has done just about everything one can do in the science-fiction field. His most famous work is undoubtedly the novel
Gateway
, which won the Hugo, Nebula, and John W. Campbell Memorial Awards for best SF novel.
Man Plus
won the Nebula Award. His mature work is marked by a serious intellectual agenda and strongly held sociopolitical beliefs, without sacrificing narrative drive. In addition to his successful solo fiction, Pohl has collaborated successfully with a variety of writers, including C. M. Kornbluth and Jack Williamson. A Pohl/Kornbluth collabortation,
The Space Merchants
, is a long-time classic of satiric science fiction.
The Starchild Trilogy
with Williamson is one of the more notable collaborations in the field. Pohl has been a magazine editor in the field since he was very young, piloting
World of If
to three successive Hugos for Best Magazine. He also has edited original-story anthologies, including the early and notable
Star
series of the early 1950s. He has at various times been a literary agent, and editor of lines of science fiction books, and a president of the Science Fiction Writers of America. For a number of years he has been active in the World SF movement. He and his wife, Elizabeth Anne Hull, a prominent academic active in the Science Fiction Research Association, live outside Chicago, Illinois.

I try to maintain page numbers for audiobooks even though obviously there aren't any. I do this to keep track of pages read and I try to use the Kindle version page numbers for this.
Synopses marked with an asterisk (*) were generated by an AI. There aren't a lot since this is an iffy way to do it - AI seems to make stuff up.
When specific publication dates are unknown (ie prefixed with a "Cir"), I try to get the publication date that is closest to the specific printing that I can.
When listing chapters, I only list chapters relevant to the story. I will usually leave off Author Notes, Indices, Acknowledgements, etc unless they are relevant to the story or the book is non-fiction.
Page numbers on this site are for the end of the main story. I normally do not include appendices, extra material, and other miscellaneous stuff at the end of the book in the page count.
See my
goodreads
page. I almost never do reviews, but I use this site to catalogue books.
See my
librarything
page. I use this site to catalogue books and it has more details on books than goodreads does.
