About the Book

De vijftien verhalen in deze bundel dateren grotendeels uit de eerste twaalf jaar van Vance's carrière als auteur - 1945 tot 1957 - toen hij vooral voor de pulpmagazines schreef: Thrilling Wonder Stories, Astounding, Startling Stories, Planet Stories, ... Ook in deze vroege verhalen zijn Vance's levendige verbeelding en karakteristieke beschrijvende flair al merkbaar aanwezig.

Een kleine greep uit de inhoudsopgave:

De Wereldbedenker - In Vance's eerste gepubliceerde verhaal, moet luitenant Lanarck op jacht naar de ontsnapte gevangene Kenna Parker. Er is één kleine complicatie: Parker heeft zich verschanst op een wereld die enkel lijkt te bestaan in de verbeelding van Laoome, een wezen dat, net als Vance zelf, in staat is om complete werelden te bedenken...

Ontheemd! - In dit verhaal, dat kort na de Tweede Wereldoorlog werd geschreven, toen de vluchtelingenproblematiek ten gevolge van de gruwelen en de verwoestingen even actueel was als heden, zijn de ontheemden een ras van mensachtigen dat door geologische activiteit uit zijn onderaardse bestaan naar het aardoppervlak wordt gedreven. Maar heel erg welkom zijn ze daar niet.

De verstrooide professor - Professor Sisley acht zijn eigen onderzoek veel belangrijker dan dat van zijn meerdere, 'Fossiel' Patcher, en bedenkt de perfecte moord zodat hij zelf Hoofd Astronomie wordt. Maar de lokale sheriff is minder dom dan hij eruitziet.
