Captives of the Flame is a 1963 science fantasy novel by Samuel R. Delany, and is the first novel in the " Fall of the Towers" trilogy. The novel was originally published as Ace Double F-199 together with The Psionic Menace by Keith Woodcott (a pseudonym of John Brunner). [1] It was later rewritten as Out of the Dead City and published by Signet Books in 1968. [2]

The stories of the Fall of the Towers trilogy were originally set in the same post-holocaust Earth as Delany's earlier The Jewels of Aptor; linking references, however, were removed in later revised editions. [3]
