Robert Sheckley Resurrected: The Early Works of Robert Sheckley
Robert Sheckley was one of the most interesting science fiction authors of the 50's and 60's. While he wrote in the same language of aliens and spaceships as many of his contemporaries, he used his works as a mirror in which he showed us a reflection of society with all its flaws and foibles. Best known for his novels such a The 10th Victim, Immortality, Inc., and The Status Civilization, he also was a fine writer of short stories. Resurrected Press has collected some of the best of these from the 50's including "Warrior Race", "The Leech", "Watchbird", "Warm", "Diplomatic Immunity", "The Hour of Battle", "Besides Still Waters", "Keep Your Shape", "One Man's Poison", 'Ask a Foolish Question", "Cost of Living", "Death Wish Forever".
