Xanadu. Not the Xanadu of Coleridge's poem, but-to the half-forgotten space drifter who discovered the place thirty years ago-a reasonable facsimile.

One of the few Ace Doubles ever to be reissued (this one is Ace Double, 22576). Usually it's very obvious which is the primary story on a double, and which is the secondary. On this one, it's hard to say. My only reason for selecting this order is that it's listed that way on the ISFDB.

This double was originally published in 1964, and is unchanged (other than the cover art), including the brief Foreword for Falcons of Narabedla.

My own favorites are "Death Between The Stars" and "The Stars Are Waiting." ( )
