Om denne e-boken
Featuring man's staggering journey to the stars...
In a Tenn's-eye view of the world, "staggering" can be interpreted in more ways than one, of course.
Notably -
The warm, human interpretation
The feminist interpretation
The green-transparent-bubble interpretation
The man-in-the-street interpretation
Mr. Tenn has included a charming witch tale, a really delicious vampire item, and a superior machine (intergalactic hit) story. These have nothing to do with man's staggering journey to the stars. They are simply here to add to the confusion.
Then again, why couldn't they have something to do with the square root of man?

Om forfatteren
William Tenn (1920-2010)
William Tenn was the pseudonym of British-born academic and writer Philip Klass. He was born in London, to American parents, and he spent most of his life in the United States, teaching writing and SF at Pennsylvania State College from 1966. He began writing after serving in the Second World War and published his first story, 'Alexander the Bait' in Astounding Science Fiction in 1946. Stories like 'Down Among the Dead Men', 'The Liberation of Earth' and 'The Custodian' quickly established him as a fine, funny and thoughtful satirist. In 1999 William Tenn was selected the Science Fiction Writers of America's Author Emeritus. He died in 2010.
