What happens when time refuses to move in one direction, machines discover emotions, and humanity’s cleverest inventions become impossible to control? Lost Sci-Fi Books 106 thru 110 brings together five imaginative stories from the 1940s, 50s and 60s, each built around an idea that turns the familiar upside down.
Z by Charles L. Fontenay — A strange possibility hidden within the physics of time may explain the mysterious connection between Summer, Mark and Wyn. But understanding how three lives can coexist may only deepen the mystery.
Your Servant Sir by Sol Boren — The perfect android servant should make life easier. Unfortunately, one machine’s peculiar habits are enough to drive its civilized human owner completely crazy.
The Robot Who Wanted To Know by Harry Harrison — A robot experiences something wonderful, frightening—and perhaps forbidden. Now he must discover whether a machine has any right to feelings the law never intended him to possess.
Day of the Hunters by Isaac Asimov — What really happened to the dinosaurs? One man has an extraordinary explanation for their disappearance, and it isn’t quite the answer anyone expects.
Tanks by Murray Leinster — Two miles of the American front have suddenly gone silent. With the outcome of a strange war hanging in the balance, two isolated infantrymen find themselves facing a threat unlike anything they were prepared to fight.
From Isaac Asimov and Harry Harrison to Murray Leinster, Charles L. Fontenay and Sol Boren, these five stories explore tomorrow from wildly different directions. Lost Sci-Fi Books 106 thru 110 is another journey into the ingenious, unpredictable worlds of vintage science fiction.
