Simon Grue found a two-inch mermaid in his bathtub. It had arms, hips, a finny tail, and (here the real trouble began) a face that reminded him irresistibly of the girl next door. Simon at first thought his roommate had been smoking some strange stuff in that bubble pipe of his and the fumes was causing the odd delusion. But when he saw another and the tiny thing flopped out onto the floor gasping for breath, it was then that Simon Grue seriously
...In the far distant future, archeologists and scholars strive to piece together the early history of intelligent life on our planet. As they delve further and further into the past, with the aid of recently discovered time capsules, their discoveries are more or less what they expected. Sort of. Intelligent life is not always what you assume it will be and Fritz Leiber again weaves a surprising tale with all his usual subtlety and wit. Indeed, it
...The Black Ewe by Fritz Leiber - She brought death to all those who walked beside her...
Very well, I'll tell you why I broke off my engagement to Lavinia Simes–though I'm not the sort of person who likes to go around broadcasting the facts of his private life. There's altogether too much broadcasting going on these days, by wave, newsprint and heaven knows what subtler avenue of approach to the
...8) Fritz Leiber: X Marks the Pedwalk: The war between vehicles and pedestrians was just getting started
Fritz Leiber speculates on whether the growing divide between pedestrians and car drivers will continue and bloom into full scale war in the future. Will society fracture due to intense economic pressure and become this type of homicidal war where powerful cars equipped with razor sharp hooks on their hoods, try to gather points and scraps of clothing for their trophy walls by blasting the people in the 'city' as they try to cross the street? And
...Lost Sci-Fi Books 166 thru 170 - Five Lost Sci-Fi Short Stories from 1833 and the 1930s, 40s, 50s and 60s
Our 81st issue is among our best so far, if I do say so myself. We have an original mystery by H.K. Slade (courtesy of Acquiring Editor Michael Bracken), a great modern tale by Ann Aptaker (courtesy of Acquiring Editor Barb Goffman), and a pair of mystery novels—Bruce Campbell's The Mystery of the Iron Box, featuring Ken Holt (by special request of one of our readers), and The Girl Who Had to Die, by Elisabeth Sanxay Holding. And
...Our 95th issue has a lot of fun stuff—starting off with a pair of original mysteries by Robert Lopresti and Mindy Quigley (thanks to Acquiring Editors Michael Bracken an Barb Goffman). Also on the mystery side, we have a pair of classic novels by Hulbert Footner R. Austin Freeman, plus a solve-it-yourself puzzler from Hal Charles.
On the fantastic side of things, A.R. Morlan has a modern tale of clones, Alfred Coppel has a scientific monster,
...As our 88th issue was coming together, I noticed that we have a pair of jungle adventure novels—the first Bomba the Jungle Boy story, as well as Tarzan and the Lost Empire. So I'm going to bill it as a "Special Jungle Warrior Issue" and just add that it's a fun one. #88 also includes two original mysteries (Mark Thielman, N.M. Cedeño) plus a bunch of other great modern and classic stories (Fritz Leiber! Day Keene! George O. Smith!). I
...Our 92nd issue features a pair of classic novels, the science fiction tale Destiny Times Three, by Fritz Leiber, and The Clue of the New Pin, a mystery by Edgar Wallace. Leiber is one of my favorite authors (he has an amazing body of work, notably the Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser sword and sorcery series, but also much else of note in the fantasy, science fiction, and horror fields). And Edgar Wallace was an amazing British author who
