About this title

Synopsis

Armchair Fiction presents extra large paperback collections of the best in classic science fiction short stories. It’s time for our sixteenth collection of vintage Science Fiction Gems, filled to the brim with great tales by top authors: L. Sprague de Camp, Milton Lesser, Chad Oliver, Carl Jacobi, Rog Phillips, Stanley Mullen and more. For interplanetary adventure with a bit of a twist at the end, check out “Dead on Departure” and “The Soaring Statue.” In “The Fifth Stone” and “The Outvaders” man’s willingness to accept his own mortality is clearly demonstrated. If you enjoy your sci-fi served up with a sprinkling of grimness and horror, then “Specimen” and “The Tomb from Beyond” are tales to make you shudder. Both “Night” and “Revolt on Mercury” testify to man’s willingness to buck interstellar government guidelines—often at great peril! So make no mistake about it, all these stories and more make up another can’t-put-it-down edition of Armchair Fiction’s Science Fiction Gems. Here’s the lineup: THE FIFTH STONE, by Alfred Coppel; DEAD ON DEPARTURE, by Milton Lesser; SPECIMEN, by C. C. MacApp; TEACH ME TO KILL, by Rog Phillips; THE SOARING STATUE, by L. Sprague de Camp; NIGHT, by Chad Oliver; THE TOMB FROM BEYOND, by Carl Jacobi; THE OUTVADERS, by Joe L. Hensley; REVOLT ON MERCURY, by Stanley Mullen. Plus More...
