From the mind of Science Fiction Grand Master, A. E. van Vogt, comes five imaginative bizarre tales of the future. The Earth Killers--What if you were blamed for the destruction of the Earth? And what if you were the only one who had the key to what really happened? The Star-Saint--A superman of space is willing to save your colony, but at what cost? The Enchanted Village--As the only survivor of a doomed expedition to Mars, your only chance of survival is to live in a deserted Martian village that is designed for a life that is totally alien to man. Itself!¬--Something is lurking beneath the sea. It is enormous, lethal and very angry! The Expendables--A multi-generational spaceship is about to make landfall. But how is it going to deal with aliens when dealing with the dysfunctional relationships onboard for multi-generations?
"Van Vogt influenced me so much because he made me appreciate a mysterious chaotic quality in the universe which is not to be feared."--Philip K. Dick
