Synopsis
Two early collections from Mr. Blish. Each is a first paperback printing, from 1959. THE SEEDLING
The galaxy is full of planets, but almost none are suitable for settlement by Earthly humanity. Thus the Seeding Ships which are little more than gigantic biochemical and biophysical laboratories are sent out, with a large supply of human germ plasm. On each world they visit, they leave behind modified human forms, sometimes modified out of all resemblance to the person next to you, to claim the hostile planet in the name of "humanity." GALACTIC CLUSTER
Nine stories, most of them longer ones, demonstrating Blish-in-the-Fifties. Some great stuff here! I particularly recommend *Beep.*
. Tomb Tapper [Astounding, 1956]
. King of the Hill [Infinity, 1955]
