    Vintage Sci-fi at its best

    If you want to read some vintage sci-fi from the golden years by two then young and upcoming writers, this volume is for you. Both of these stories were long buried in the archives of pulp sci-fi magazine. They do not disappoint and they are prophetic in their plots and deliveries.
