A genre-spanning collection of short stories dealing with naked unicorns, digital watches with minds of their own, and dreadful events on the planet Venus
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
This is no unified collection of similar themes: enjoy mysteries, suspense stories, and hard science fiction under the same cover. These stories hold a decidedly 1950s tone and present many classic human/alien encounters and tests of interpersonal understanding under odd circumstances. The result challenges convent-ional views of the genre. -- Midwest Book Review
