WORLDS TO COME

Nine intelligent diverse entertainments by some of the most illustrious names in the field--Clarke, Bradbury, Asimov, Heinlein, etc. The collection ranges from detailed realism in a saga of a man lost on the moon, to a cunning horror story about an expedition to Mars which finds an unusual heaven, to cracker-barrel humor in a tale of a stranger who wins a local yokel contest, to a taut psychological study of an astronaut grounded by agrophobia. Each contribution combines elements of adventure and suspense within a framework designed to sharpen the wits and broaden the concepts of the reader. For further exploration, there's a brief list of full-length books by each of the contributors. Good Knight...a fine find for the young Set enthusiast.
