Lost Sci-Fi Books 276 thru 280 brings together five vintage science fiction stories from Tom Godwin, Robert Silverberg, Ray Cummings, Donald A. Wollheim, and Robert Sheckley—five writers with very different visions of what might be waiting beyond the familiar world.
The Cold Equations by Tom Godwin presents one of science fiction’s most unforgiving dilemmas when a spacecraft pilot discovers a hidden passenger whose presence threatens a vital mission. With fuel calculated to the smallest margin, there may be no way to save everyone aboard.
Robert Silverberg takes us to another world in The Mystery of Deneb IV, where an expedition encounters a puzzle that refuses to fit expectations. Miracle by Ray Cummings ventures into the strange possibilities of science and the extraordinary consequences that follow when the impossible suddenly becomes possible.
In The Unfinished City, Donald A. Wollheim imagines a mysterious place filled with unanswered questions and discoveries that challenge everything its visitors believe they understand. Robert Sheckley rounds out the collection with The Perfect Woman, bringing his unmistakable wit to a future where the pursuit of perfection produces complications no one anticipated.
From the merciless mathematics of space travel to distant planets, unexplained discoveries, and wonderfully unpredictable visions of tomorrow, these five stories capture the imagination that made vintage science fiction so enduring.
Rediscover five remarkable journeys into the unknown with Lost Sci-Fi Books 276 thru 280.
