    5.0 out of 5 stars Well worth the purchase price!
    Reviewed in Canada on 13 March 2016
    99 cents for about 25 books. A real bargain for anyone interested in reading old science fiction novels. Great fun to see how they thought it would be like in the 21st century and beyond. A bargain at many times the price! I purchased all of the series and am enjoying them immensely!

    3.0 out of 5 stars Nouvelles de SF des années 50.
    Reviewed in France on 11 December 2014
    De nombreux récits ( de qualités différentes ) d'un auteur prolifique déjà connu en France, pour ses romans de SF, au Fleuve Noir, dans les années 50, sous un de ses nombreux pseudonymes : Vargo Statten. Ses récits ont été réédités en Italie, aux USA et commencent à l'être en France. À découvrir ou à re-découvrir.

    3.0 out of 5 stars These stories aren't as bad as the other reviewer made out
    Reviewed in the United States on 26 October 2015
    These stories aren't as bad as the other reviewer made out. They are, however, written in a style that has long been out of fashion and can be a little hard to wade through. This anthology may not stack up against modern authors, but if you're a fan of of early, pulp science fiction then this book is worth a look.

    1.0 out of 5 stars don't waste your .91 cents
    Reviewed in the United States on 9 November 2014
    Nostalgic fiction is one thing, poorly written drek is another... This definitely falls into the latter category, it's horrible. And the only thing worse than the prose is the proof reading, multiple mistakes on every page. Just move along, there's nothing to see here.
