Best of John W. Campbell - Softcover

Aus dem Klappentext

OF JOHN W. CAMPBELL<br>Here are the finest stories by the man who almost single-handedly created modern science fiction--the writer who taught a generation to dream...and to write of all possible futures.<br>TWILIGHT<br>He was a mere hitchhiker now, but he had once seen the far, far future...and had returned to mourn what he had seen!<br>THE MACHINE<br>The machine was ultimately benevolent...so benevolent that it gave mankind the ultimate but most unwanted gift!<br>FORGETFULNESS<br>They were like children in the museum of Earth's glorious past...children who had forgotten so much, but whose powers were those of gods!<br>And the classic that was to become the movie THE THING: WHO GOES THERE?<br>The Thing was the most dreadful threat men had ever faced...a creature that could be any one--or all--of them!<br>And many more!
