Book overview

The "Golden Age of Science Fiction" MEGAPACK™ ebook anthologies are designed to introduce readers to classic science fiction writers who might otherwise be forgotten. Lester del Rey -- one of the all-time greats of the science fiction world -- had been well on his way to becoming forgotten before Wildside Press began its reprint program of his classic short fiction. This second volume of his collected short stories includes 10 more great science fiction stories, representing some of his finest science fiction work. Of special note are the stories "Evenson" (his contribution to Harlan Ellison's "Dangerous Visions" anthology) and the novella version of "Nerves" from ASTOUNDING SCIENCE FICTION (later expanded to novel length).

Included are:


WIND BETWEEN THE WORLDS

EARTHBOUND

DARK MISSION

EVENSONG

THE STARS LOOK DOWN

THE STILL WATERS

THE ONE-EYED MAN

HABIT

NERVES

SPAWNING GROUND

    99 cents for about 25 books. A real bargain for anyone interested in reading old science fiction novels. Great fun to see how they thought it would be like in the 21st century and beyond. A bargain at many times the price! I purchased all of the series and am enjoying them immensely!

    I have read the first eleven of these stories. I like the way the stories are told and the writing style. I am looking to read the next in the series.
