Reviews

Another find compendium of sci-fi story is


(4 stars)

I found that this issue of Astounding stories was back up to the standard set by previous additions both in terms of the quality of the original material and the excellent quality of the readings, especially that by the late Beth Thomas. This is a most enjoyable series of good old-fashioned sci-fi tales and the readers regularly do them great justice.
