Publisher's Synopsis
The Variable Man: Philip K Dick He fixed things-clocks, refrigerators, vidsenders and destinies. But he had no business in the future, where the calculators could not handle him. He was Earth's only hope-and its sure failure! The Misplaced Spaceship: Harry Harrison It might seem careless to lose track of something like a battleship but interstellar space is on a different scale of magnitude. A misplaced battleship in the wrong hands can be most dangerous. Youth: Isaac Asimov They found the two strange animals the morning after they heard the thunder sounds. They knew that they could never show their new pets to their parents. Bread Overhead: Fritz Leiber The Staff of Life suddenly and disconcertingly sprouted wings -and mankind had to eat crow! Rainworm: Jakob Chapman The bond was only marred in one way. I relived her strongest memories and emotions: the explosion of Candeo-being flung from the inferno while the rest of her race sizzled in silence-the planet below a glowing brand.
