: * here is one for you. From Holder & Stoughton (War- wick Square, E.C.4) at 10s. 6d. Michael Joseph continue their series of “‘Novels of Tomorrow” with an anthology of stories by Robert Sheckley, one of the lesser-known but highly readable American science fiction authors, UN- TOUCHED BY HUMAN HANDS. The book contains thirteen stories, most of which you will have read before— and most of which you will want to keep in permanent form. They are written in the usual American manner: abrupt, highly adult, just a little too fast and somewhat lacking in the finer discrimina- tions of emotions. Well worth having. From Michael Joseph (26 Bloomsbury Street, W.C.1) at 12s. 6d. Judith Merril has put to- gether nineteen 156 stories of ‘AUTHENTIC SCIENCE FICTION eve Ce Aer "rit > science fiction and fantasy from the American magazines __ and the odd book to form a volume entitled BEYOND THE BARRIERS OF SPACE AND TIME. What an original title! Still, the stories are the thing, we suppose, and in that direction you will be getting your money’s worth. All the big names are represented and—unusual in such an- thologies—these stories are some of their best. To us they range over a whole compass of things, but to Theodore Sturgeon, who wrote the intro- duction and is not unversed in the science fiction field, they represent “‘nineteen dif- — ferent views of Mind and its possible manifestations.”’ Look at them as you may, you will not fail to be highly — entertained by them. Especi- ally the one by—who do you think—Agatha Christie! From Sidgwick & Jackson (1 Tavi-— stock Chambers, Bloomsbury Way, W.C.1) at 10s. 6d. COMICWOOKS.CO my 7 ew des > b
