Time loops, robot lawmen, feudal futures, deadly rivalries, and impossible choices collide in Lost Sci-Fi Books 116 thru 120, featuring five imaginative stories from some of science fiction’s most memorable writers.
…And It Comes Out Here by Lester del Rey — Everything has a beginning and an end. At least, that’s what common sense tells us. But when cause and effect begin chasing each other in circles, common sense may not be enough.
Hall of Mirrors by Fredric Brown — A man faces an extraordinary decision: sacrifice the life he knows for the chance to live it all over again. But knowing what comes next can make the choice even harder.
The Barbarians by Algis Budrys — Pennsylvania has become a land of moats, nobles, fortified strongholds, and invading hordes. Civilization has changed beyond recognition, but the struggle for power remains remarkably familiar.
Arm of the Law by Harry Harrison — Robot Restriction Laws were supposed to keep machines under control. Then a robotic lawman arrives with abilities—and ideas about enforcing justice—that nobody quite expected.
The Hated by Frederik Pohl — Returning from space should mean coming home. Instead, men hardened by confinement and resentment discover that the most dangerous part of their journey may begin after they land.
Five stories spanning decades of science-fiction imagination, filled with sharp ideas, strange futures, and unexpected turns. Lost Sci-Fi Books 116 thru 120 brings together Lester del Rey, Fredric Brown, Algis Budrys, Harry Harrison, and Frederik Pohl in another journey through the imaginative worlds of vintage science fiction.
