Science fiction legend Robert Silverberg reflects on some of his earliest, least-reprinted tales in this new Planet Stories collection Between 1956 and 1958, Silverberg contributed dozens of short stories and novellas to the digest pulps, each written in the bombastic, high-adventure style of the original Planet Stories magazine. Since then, those tales have re-appeared only rarely (and sometimes never again) in long out-of-print paperback anthologies. This volume, the first of three to come this year, features seven hard-to-find classic Silverberg novellas: Slaves of the Star Giants, Spawn of the Deadly Sea, The Flame and the Hammer, Valley Beyond Time, Hunt the Space-Witch , The Silent Invaders, and Spacerogue.

It started with a fight at school.
The girl who attacked me burst into flames on the way to the hospital, and now, I'm starting to...change.
In less than a week, my biggest problem has gone from trying to decide what to do if I don't get into The Citadel to navigating the front lines of a looming, supernatural war.
And you know what? I signed up for all the honors classes these past four years. None of them prepared me for Eden's Bluff, a school in the Bermuda Triangle with human-elemental hybrids, angels, snakes with wings, and an inter-dimensional veil that someone is trying to destroy.
Unless I stop them.

I need more time to train Tiana, but our enemies won't wait for the young Sidhe Queen to embrace her full power. At the drop of a hat—seemingly—I became a mother. Not that I'd ever considered the possibility of parenthood. If I had, whatever I came up with would have been far off the mark. Tiana had opinions before she was born. Ones she was vocal about. She inherited my affinity for animals, Blake's wings, and his Sidhe royal lineage. In Underhill, they hail her as their queen, which has made raising her far more difficult. If one of us says no, she runs to her bevy of honorary aunts and uncles, one of whom is sure to indulge her. Between Tiana's magic and her position in Sidhe society, I assumed she'd be a target from the moment of her birth. Somehow, a dozen years have passed. I've often let my guard down—and kicked myself for my lack of vigilance. Steeped in magic, my wild child gets lost in the moment. I... Views: 182

Letters From Klara proves yet again her mastery of this literary form." Views: 182
