Bokov's The most famous of the great hunting restaurants, where a man could escape the pallid food of the vending slots. He could hunt his own game with the knowledge that an expert chef stood ready to prepare a gourmet's meal from the fresh-killed animal. It wasn't easy.

Castlemont Glasshouse A house of glass... Glass all around them. Glass walls and ceilings and floors. The bed, glass fiber. The chairs and tables, glass.

Each room was equipped to illumine itself at irregular intervals, but it was impossible to determine just when a room would flare into brightness. Caught in the act of lovemaking, a couple would suddenly find themselves tangled in a wash of silver, or gold, or red, yellow or green. Other couples, around, above and below, would be able to watch them from glass floors, walls, ceilings. Then the light would die - to spring on in another chamber. | |||||
