Aliens have been a major theme in science fiction literature from the very beginnings of the genre…though they seem to have morphed over the decades from humanoids (six-limbed and blue though they might be!) to the utterly incomprehensible to noncorporeal energy beings – and everything in between! This collection focuses on aliens as depicted in many different forms over many different decades. While in no way comprehensive – I'm not sure a «definitive» book of alien stories could ever be assembled – we think this one is, at the very least, a lot of fun. Included are:<BR> THROUGH MUD ONE PICKS A WAY, by Tim Sullivan<BR> LABORATORY, by Jerome Bixby<BR> BEULAH, by Talmage Powell<BR> ALIEN STILL LIFE, by John Gregory Betancourt<BR> DEAD RINGER, by Lester del Rey<BR> ESCAPE TO EARTH, by Manly Banister<BR> LESSON IN SURVIVAL, by Frank Belknap Long<BR> SCIENTIFIC METHOD, by Chad Oliver<BR> THE BEES OF DEATH, by Robert Moore Williams<BR> THE BIG FIX, by Richard Wilson<BR> THE CARNIVORE, by Katherine MacLean<BR> THE LARGE ANT, by Howard Fast<BR> "THIS WORLD IS OURS!" by Emil Petaja<BR> RAINBOW JADE, by Gardner E.
