Ariadne is the daughter of King Minos of Crete, and the Minotaur is her half brother - his body deformed when he attempted to assume the powers of a God, making him half-man, half-beast." "It was while he was working for Motorola that Saberhagen started writing fiction seriously at the age of about 30. His first sale was to Galaxy Magazine, which published his short story "Volume PAA-PYX" in 1961. "Fortress Ship", his first "Berserker" short shory, was published in 1963. Then, in 1964, Saberhagen saw the publication of his first novel, The Golden People. From 1967 to 1973, he worked as an editor for the Chemistry articles in the Encyclopaedia Britannica as well as writing its article on science fiction. He then quit and took up writing full-time. In 1975, he moved to Albuquerque, New Mexico.". Near Fine in Near Fine dust jacket .
