Tales from Super-Science Fiction  Robert Silverberg (Editor), Frank Kelly Freas (Illustrator)
Haffner Press (2012), Edition: 1st, Hardcover, 400 pages

Wonderful, Classic, Super-Science Fiction! No worry about hard science or techno-geekery. A collection of short stories from the 1950s pulp magazine of the same name. Early work by writers who have become icons of the genre, written without pressure or pretentiousness are a true joy to read. Pure, delightful, speculative sci-fi. Shorts make it an ideal book for the nightstand or the break room when you only have a few minutes to read. You will be transported into the alternate realities (and some futures) as envisioned by great creative minds a generation (or two) ago. Well worth reading in small bites -- all the better to savor the taste and texture of each story individually.
