Requirements: ePUB reader, 3.7Mb
Overview: Created from the Book Club Edition hardback.
Regardless of what you tell them, people tend do the things they shouldn’t. That defiance in the face of the unknown—that bubrie which makes us meddle with things better left alone—is a traditional theme of sf & f. The early cinema emphasized its capacity to scare, and horror and sf films from Forbidden Planet to Alien resonate in our collective unconscious.
We at the Club wondered what some of today s best sf writers would do with this classic motif, so we asked renowned editor (and long-time SFBC member) Marvin Kaye to pick six stellar authors to contribute to an all-new SFBC Creation. Forbidden Planet gathers their exciting original novellas, stories that go to worlds we wouldn’t want to set foot on, while stirring up our innate desire to challenge the status quo.
