Synopsis

The book contains a huge variety of short science fiction stories running almost the full gamut of the genre. In Battle at Time's End Fate clashes with the successor to Time's Guardian. The child of an alien shapeshifter father and Earth mother is of considerable importance to human history in The Shifter Child. In Star Ravagers impossibly alien life forms seek to consume our Sun, while in Final Revenge the rape of future humanity is avenged. An extradimensional visitor seeks to help an Earth besieged by both aliens and alien gods in A Long Way From Home. While to the advanced inhabitants of Drandor, Visitor 51347 is not at all what he seems to be. And much more.
