NEW COLLECTION OF NEVER REPRINTED SF CLASSICS! Only Raymond F. Jones, the Golden Age author of the legendary space opus, This Island Earth, and the Hugo Nominee novelette “Rat Race,” could have penned this mind-expanding collection of science fiction tales. Here is a generous helping of Jones’ short novels: “Sunday is 3000 Years Away,” a romantic time travel story, “Alarm Reaction,” a scientific puzzler with the future of Earth at stake, “The Unlearned,” a classic of cultural misunderstanding, and “Discontinuity,” one of his most popular novellas. Also featured are three novelettes showcasing the master at his most adroit: “The Cat and the King,” which recounts the unusual downfall of a tyrant, “The Farthest Horizon,” the story of a woman who learned a new meaning of the word “home,” and “The Person from Porlock,” which attempts to explain why so many great works of art and scientific theory remain incomplete. The Encyclopedia of Science Fiction says Jones’ work can always be counted on for “exciting narrative and lively variations on science fiction themes.” This first-ever book edition features classic novellas written in Jones’ prime that are so lengthy they have never before been reprinted. Culled from the pages of such legendary sf pulps as Astounding Science Fiction, Thrilling Wonder Stories, and Worlds of IF, this exclusive ebook represents an unprecedented opportunity to sample the work of this science fiction master at the top of his form.
