Here are eleven classic novellas that were published before the Nebula Awards were created and they honor the cream of the crop. Many of them were possibly the spark that set many a fans desire on fire for more. They are by the fathers of the field and the masters of creating interesting and otherworldly locales. Many of them are unavailable today and this is a welcome volume to fill in the gaps that exists in some of our memories and collections.

Many fans remember the movie THE THING FROM ANOTHER WORLD, here is the original story "Who Goes There" by John W. Campbell. "The Time Machine" by H.G. Wells, "Universe" by Robert Heinlein, "With Folded Hands" by Jack Williamson, "Nerves" by Lester del Rey, and others by Poul Anderson, Ted Sturgeon, Cyril Kornbluth and Henry Kuttner and C.L. Moore.

This is a one volume collection of some of the finest science fiction ever written. If you don’t already have a copy, pick one up.
