At the time of the release of this ebook edition of The Big Time , it remains the only Hugo Award–winning work in the public domain. That makes it a very special treasure indeed! The Big Time tells the tale of a group of servicemembers who work in facilities isolated from regular space-time. They're involved in a war conducted by two shadowy groups that spans time itself, with all of humanity as pawns on an ever-changing historical battlefield. It explores a fascinating range of themes including time travel, the purpose of war, isolation, and love in the face of it all. Fritz Leiber (died 1992) was a significant literary figure of the 20th century. Their work has endured across generations and continues to be read and studied worldwide. The early science fiction genre, pioneered by visionaries like H.G. Wells and Jules Verne, laid the groundwork for one of literature's most enduring and imaginative forms. The Big Time stands as an early example of speculative fiction grappling with the promises and perils of science and technology.
