HARDCOVER. Condition: New. Cemetery Dance Publications. New. Cemetery Dance Publications, 2018, Hardcover Flight or Fright, edited by Stephen King and Bev Vincent Fasten your seatbelts for an anthology of turbulent tales curated by Stephen King and Bev Vincent. This exciting new anthology, perfect for airport or airplane reading, includes an original introduction and story notes for each story by Stephen King, along with brand new stories from Stephen King and Joe Hill., About the Book: Stephen King hates to fly. Now he and co-editor Bev Vincent would like to share this fear of flying with you. Welcome to Flight or Fright, an anthology about all the things that can go horribly wrong when you're suspended six miles in the air, hurtling through space at more than 500 mph and sealed up in a metal tube (like gulp! a coffin) with hundreds of strangers. All the ways your trip into the friendly skies can turn into a nightmare, including some we'll bet you've never thought of before. but now you will the next time you walk down the jetway and place your fate in the hands of a total stranger. Featuring brand new stories by Joe Hill and Stephen King, as well as fourteen classic tales and one poem from the likes of Richard Matheson, Ray Bradbury, Roald Dahl, Dan Simmons, and many others, Flight or Fright is, as King says, "ideal airplane reading, especially on stormy descents. Even if you are safe on the ground, you might want to buckle up nice and tight." Book a flight with Cemetery Dance Publications for this terrifying new anthology that will have you thinking twice about how you want to reach your final destination. Table of Contents: Introduction by Stephen King, Cargo by E. Michael Lewis, The Horror of the Heights by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Nightmare at 20,000 Feet by Richard Matheson, The Flying Machine by Ambrose Bierce, Lucifer! by E.C. Tubb, The Fifth Category by Tom Bissell, Two Minutes Forty-Five Seconds by Dan Simmons, Diablitos by Cody Goodfellow, Air Raid by John Varley, You Are Released by Joe Hill, Warbirds by David J. Schow, The Flying Machine by Ray Bradbury, Zombies on a Plane by Bev Vincent, They Shall Not Grow Old by Roald Dahl, Murder in the Air by Peter Tremayne, The Turbulence Expert by Stephen King, Falling by James Dickey, Afterword by Bev Vincent. A Note from Stephen King on the origins of Flight or Fright: Well, we were sitting around at dinner before a screening of The Dark Tower in Bangor, and there were a lot of people who'd flown in for the big night. I mentioned that I hated flying, and the conversation turned to various airplane stories, some scary and some funny. I said there had never been a collection of flight-based horror stories, although I could think of several (including the Matheson and the Conan Doyle, which are in the book) about the terrors of flight. I said someone ought to do the book. Rich Chizmar said, "I would, in a heartbeat." It took more than one heartbeat, but Flight or Fright is now a book. Bev Vincent, that incredible polymath, agreed to team with me as co-editor, and now the book including several new stories, one by me and one by my son, Joe Hill is an actual fact. Bev and I think it would make ideal airplane reading, especially on stormy descents. A Note from Bev Vincent on the origins of Flight or Fright: I was sitting next to Rich Chizmar in a Bangor restaurant when Steve came up to us with this idea for an anthology of horror stories involving flying. The fact that we were across the street from Bangor International Airport was especially apropos. Steve and I dug deep to come up with this collection of stories some of them I'd read before but many of them I hadn't. It was a delight to find tales by some of my favorite authors that fit the loose theme and also to be introduced to several new-to-me writers who had published some chilling tales. Then there's the new stories by Steve and Joe Hill, both of which are terrific and disturbing contributions to this sub-genre. I spent 24 hours total on two flights to and from Japan while working on this project and I spent a lot of time.a LOT of time.thinking about all the things that might go wrong when I was 35,000 feet up hurtling through space at 500 mph in a torpedo with wings. Is it a little twisted that we hope this anthology makes a lot of other people equally nervous the next time they board a flight? . 2018. HARDCOVER.

Stephen J. Garber is a policy analyst in the NASA History Division. He received a master's degree from the University of Pittsburgh, a master's degree in Science and Technology Studies from Virginia Tech. Focusing on national security space, he has also done a detail in the Pentagon's Space Policy office. His chapter on orbital debris was published in the 2016 Space Security Index and another essay on debris is forthcoming as a journal article. He has several relevant security clearances and also works on declassification of historical documents. He has written on such aerospace history topics as NASA's organizational culture, project management, the design of the Space Shuttle, and the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI) program. He also has been published on intelligence history. Human spaceflight is the driver for most activities that the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) undertakes. NASA has a rich aviation research heritage and has also done pathbreaking scientific and applications work using robotic spacecraft, human spaceflight is a difficult endeavor that engenders great enthusiasm and support for NASA. This symposium contains sixteen fascinating essays about the past and future of spaceflight, written by some of the most important figures in the space community. A confluence of anniversaries made the spring of 2001 a propitious time for reflection on a forty-year record of achievement and on what may lie ahead. The fortieth anniversary of Alan Shepard's first spaceflight, took place on 5 May 2001. The fortieth anniversary of Yuri Gagarin's spaceflight, the first time a human orbited Earth, took place on 12 April 2001. In addition, 25 May was the fortieth anniversary of President John F. Kennedy's famous speech in which he proposed putting an American on the Moon "before this decade is out," initiating the Apollo Project.
