Not Free SF Reader

This book came about because of interest in the older work of The Shape Of Space being not easily obtainable, and adding a similar amount of new material. The latter half of the collection is the more recent work, and that is certainly better in general, as that material is pretty much from the seventies. So, up to 3.36 now with one. Some humour added in with some of those stories, as well as some fairy tale, Dunsany and Cabell references.
