About this issue

This February 1956 issue of Infinity science fiction magazine presents seven stories ranging from novelettes to short fiction. The lead novelet "The Best of Fences" by Randall Garrett depicts humanity's galactic colonization efforts while racing an alien species for stellar dominance. The story centers on communications specialists monitoring returning near-light-speed expeditions—called "Ancestors"—whose crews have experienced only years while centuries pass on Earth. Psychologist Romm Parmay receives promotion to Chief of Psychological Contact, tasked with managing contact teams for hypersee vessels, requiring careful handling of the displaced pioneers. Other featured works include Kenneth Bulmer's novelet "Quarry," stories by established authors including Sprague de Camp, Harlan Ellison, Frederik Pohl, and C.M. Kornbluth, and contributions from Charles Beaumont and Damon Knight. The magazine includes reader feedback and editorial departments alongside professional illustration.
