Customer Reviews

Very nice mix of humor, irony and the macabre

This is an excellent way to be introduced to the work of pulp writer and mystery/science fiction author Fredric Brown. The collection here -- introduced by Robert Bloch -- nicely spans Brown's career and while heavy on the science fiction elements, still presents a fine selection of Brown's output. Mostly short stories and not a dog in the bunch!
