Description: The Best of John W. Campbell - Ballantine 24960 / June 1976 - 1st printing Here in one volume are 11 of the finest stories and one penetrating article by the man who almost single-handily created modern science fiction - stories rich in imagination and outstanding in their sweep and sense of that wonder which is science fiction at its best. Stories include: - TWILIGHTHe was a mere hitchhiker now; but he had once seen the far, far future...and had returned to mourn what he had seen! - THE MACHINEThe machine was ultimately benevolent... so benevolent that it gave mankind the ultimate, but most unwanted gift! - FORGETFULLNESSThey were like children in the museum of Earth's glorius past... children who had forgotten so much, but whose powers were those of the gods! - CLOAK OF AESIRThe Sarn Mother had grown weary during her long rule over Earth... but neither her daughters nor mankind would grant her peace. - WHO GOES THERE?The Thing was the most dreadful threat men had ever faced...a thing that could be anyone - or all of them! Plus six more stories of wonder - and an important view of the future by the writer who taught a generation to dream... and to write of all possible futures.
