Cover art: Karel Thole Blurb: “New stories of fantasy and science fiction by the author of Freedom Road, The Unvanquished, etc.” HOWARD EAST world-famous bestselling author, has been a reader and fan of science fiction all his life. Here, in this remarkable new book he presents nine of his own fine short stories of the fantastic and the science-fictional. You will find some unforgettable tales here-stories of the unusual and strange in the world around us--tales like the title story of what happened when a twenty-foot long flying being was shot down over. Indochina, like the man with the copy of tomorrow's newspaper who tried to cash in on his advance information, like the strange results of the wounding of Mother Earth (see the cover painting), like ... but read them for yourself. Louis Untermeyer writes: "In his new book, Howard Fast is as imaginative and as boldly inventive as ever. I can't think of a current book that is better reading, and what's more im-portant, rereading."
