Customer Review: "More Than Human" is a strange book indeed, filled with evocative prose and provocative ideas. It is a stretch to call this book science fiction, but that's where it's usually classified because it deals with "supernatural" phenomena and contains technology-based plot developments. But it's really a... more info
Customer Review: Marvelous book! These are "short-short" stories, about 3-5 pages each, perfect for a quick reading before bed, or, as a short diversion. All the stories are from a different Sci-Fi author, and, despite being forty-plus years old, they are as fascinating and plausible as if they were written... more info
Customer Review: I've been excited by the prospect of this book for quite some time. Imagine all the Sturgeon short stories collected in a series of volumes, and not just the ones that were published or previously collected, but ALL of them. Edited and with notes, to top it off, by that most meticulous of literary... more info
Customer Review: 'Some of Your Blood' is a very interesting and creepy novella by Theodore Sturgeon. The story is basically told through mail correspondence between a military psychiatrist and his colleagues. The topic? A fellow identified as George. George is twisted, backwater monster. Through very clever writing... more info
Customer Review: I now have all 7 volumes - all 7 available currently. But I only got volume 5 about a month ago, much later than 6 and 7. And the biggest problem I am facing now - how am I going to make it last till they print the 8th?! I read one story per week - though I die to gulp them down and make a feast of... more info
Customer Review: This is the 11th volume of Ted Sturgeon's collected works and it contains, among other things, some of his lesser stories. The main entertainment here, at least at first, appears to be Harlan Ellison. Yeah, that Harlan Ellison. Only now, apparently, Harlan is a Registered Trademark, because we... more info
Customer Review: In this volume Sturgeon is beginning to hit his stride. Some of these are among the best short stories in SF (e.g. Microcosmic God, Shottle Bop).
In the earlier stories, Sturgeon was still trying to find his ideal voice. Much of the prose was forced, and some rather simple plot devices... more info
Customer Review: The first two volumes in this series are fascinating looks at Sturgeon's development, well worth reading for those who are already fans of his. The third is where Sturgeon really starts to hit his stride, though, and this fourth volume is the first that I can wholeheartedly recommend to those... more info
Customer Review: Half of the stories happen to exist beyond ordinary sci-fi. It makes them the fairytales your children will read. Sturgeon has the music. Others may play virtuously on their instruments. He simply brings us to hear the beautiful tunes. Those which let us vibrate from inside and leave true... more info
Customer Review: It is hard to believe that this is the SEVENTH volume of Ted Sturgeon's collected stories and they are only up to 1953. Why would you want to own such a voluminous set? And why this particular one? Simply: Sturgeon is one of the most provocative, innovative and beautiful writers in the English... more info
