Synopsis

Lost Sci-Fi Books 66 thru 70 launches into five unpredictable adventures from Ray Bradbury, Robert Silverberg, George O. Smith, George Whittington and Fredric Brown, where strange minds, dangerous inventions and deadly stretches of space turn routine missions upside down.Jonah of the Jove-Run by Ray Bradbury — The crew can’t stand the battered old man whose peculiar cosmic instincts can track a meteor across the galaxy. They especially hate what he does to their expensive equipment—until those instincts become something they desperately need.Rescue Mission by Robert Silverberg — A mutant telepath easily captures two Earthmen in his mental web. Catching them was the simple part. Figuring out what to do with them afterward becomes an entirely different problem.Rat Race by George O. Smith — It was supposed to be an electronic gadget. Becoming a rat trap was accidental. Unfortunately, what the device does next proves that some inventions should never make it beyond the workbench.Space-Lane of No-Return by George Whittington — Clearing the same monotonous space-lanes has left one man desperate for excitement. He wants danger and adventure among the strange worlds of the Solar System—and suddenly gets far more than he bargained for.And the Gods Laughed by Fredric Brown — Hank’s story about earrings that wear their owners sounds like another ridiculous space yarn. Everyone laughs at first. Then the crew starts wondering whether Hank might be telling the truth.Lost Sci-Fi Books 66 thru 70 delivers five fast-moving journeys through the stranger corners of vintage science fiction, where boredom can be deadly, technology rarely behaves itself, and even the most ridiculous story might contain a dangerous grain of truth.

About Ray Bradbury

Ray Bradbury (1920-2012) was an American novelist, short story writer, essayist, playwright, screenwriter, and poet. He became a full-time writer in 1943 and contributed numerous short stories to periodicals before publishing a collection of them, Dark Carnival, in 1947.
His reputation as a writer of courage and vision was established with the publication of The Martian Chronicles in 1950, which describes Earthlings' first attempts to conquer and colonize Mars and the unintended consequences. Next came The Illustrated Man and Fahrenheit 451, which many consider to be Bradbury's masterpiece. Other works by Bradbury include The October Country, Dandelion Wine, A Medicine for Melancholy, Something Wicked This Way Comes, I Sing the Body Electric! Quicker Than the Eye, and Driving Blind. In all, Bradbury published more than thirty books and close to six hundred short stories. He has been awarded the O. Henry Memorial Award, the Benjamin Franklin Award, the World Fantasy Award for Lifetime Achievement, the Grand Master Award from the Science Fiction Writers of America, and the PEN Center USA West Lifetime Achievement Award, among others.
