The TyBurn Tree: Sci-Fi Pulp Covers (Part 1)

prologue ~

this was a golden age, a time of high adventure, rich living & hard dying..but nobody thought so...this was a future of fortune and theft, pillage & rapine, culture & vice..but nobody admitted it ..this was an age of extremes , a fascinating century of freaks..but nobody loved it..all the habitable worlds of the solar system were occupied..3 planets & 8 satellites & eleven million million people swarmed in one of the most exciting ages ever known, yet minds yearned for other times, as always, but look around, the ground is warm.. the air is thin and dry..it's always three o'clock in the afternoon, have another beer, the sun rolls down like honey, it's time for a nap before dinner..the silence can kill ya, the border-line is endless, if you come to tread on kings I hear you say, go back to sleep baby, it will wait another day..hahaHa _
