A collection of more then 16 short stories edited by Boucher. All of these stories were published in the 1950's. Most are SF but a few are fantasy or just odd. I had trouble getting interested in this collection. The stories seemed to be very average. After reading a few I began to enjoy this older style.
Imagine: A Proem--Fredric Brown This Earth of Majesty--Arthur C. Clarke Birds Can't Count--Mildred Clingerman The Golem--Avram Davidson Pottage--Zenna Henderson (good story) The Vanishing American--Charles Beaumont Created He Them--Alice Eleanor Jones Too Far--Fredric Brown A Matter of Energy--James Blish Nellthu--Anthony Boucher Dreamworld--Isaac Asimov One Ordinary Day, With Peanuts--Shirley Jackson (interesting) The Short Ones--Raymond E. Banks The Last Prophet--Mildred Clingerman Botany Bay--P. M. Hubbard (good idea) A Canticle for Leibowitz--Walter M. Miller, Jr. (I like this story better then the full novel) Lament by a Maker--L. Sprague de Camp Pattern for Survival--Richard Matheson The Singing Bell--Isaac Asimov (typical Asimov mystery) The Last Word--Chad Oliver & Charles Beaumont (fun story with enough ideas for a long novel) ( )
