Comments and Reviews


ppint. 13th Oct 2022		there is actually a significant difference between single-author collections, - and anthologies of stories by different authors: - can you spot what this difference is ?



annaloog ● 13th Oct 2022		By that idea, all collections / anthologies should be by the stories' authors, with the editor relegated to Notes. This collection happens to have been selected from stories by only one author, rather than several. If 45worlds could allow both author and editor to coexist, I would prefer equal billing for this title; alas, it is either one or the other.



ppint. 13th Oct 2022		this dell books mmpb really would be better bookcatted as ''author: c. m. kornbluth''



annaloog ● 13th Oct 2022		I may have to add this to my "to read" stack while I have it out; it's been a few decades since the last time.

ppint. 23rd Jul 2021		robert hale uk h/cvr edition, first h/cvr edition cover (d-j) art unsigned cover (d-j) price (cover flaps not visible on the ex-library re-bound copy) 192pp. including titles, indicia etc, blank end p, bound with endpapers between covered boards the typography on the hale d-j is appallingly poor, and makes this collection of c. m. kornbluth's stories look as though it is an anthology edited by james blish... - all of the stories are by one author, c. m. kornbluth: so it'd make much better sense for all editions of this book to be bookcatted as ''author: c. m. kornbluth'' reprint collection of seven short stories, and two novelettes edited into one novella by james blish: preface (nf) james blish the rocket of 1955 (short story) escape (fanzine) 8/1939, stirring stories vol.1 #2, 4/1941 ms. found in a chinese fortune cookie (ss) f&sf vol.13 #1, 7/1957 what sorghum says (ss) cosmic stories vol.1 #2, 5/1941 crisis!
