Partners in Wonder Paperback – 29 July 2009

by Harlan Ellison (Author)
Robert Bloch / Ben Bova / Algis Budrys / Avram Davidson / Samuel R. Delany / Joe L. Hensley / Keith Laumer / William Rotsler / Robert Sheckley / Robert Silverberg / Henry Slesar / Theodore Sturgeon / A. E. Van Vogt / Roger Zelazny / and Harlan Ellison, unassisted. If you mix Ellison with wild talents like those names listed above you've got a book as unique as the Abominable Snowperson. Here is the first collection of collaborative stories ever created, each deranged vision complete with introduction (in the patented Ellison manner) explaining how the story was written and who gets the blame. The lunatic mind of Harlan Ellison strikes again.

    This is a book where all the stories were written in collaboration with other authors. As with any collection of short stories there is some unevenness with the quality of the stories, but basically it was a very good book. Recommended.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Great collections, priceless collaborations, shame that it's only available in an old paperback

    The only thing I don't like about this book, at least in 2024, is that no one offers an ebook, including Kindle. As in life, Ellison remains controversial long after his heyday. The fact that his work is far from anything published by New York these days, is a feature, not a bug.

    This is probably a contender for best anthology he ever wrote. And he did write it, didn't just edit it, with collaborations with the greatest scifi writers of his time: Sheckley, Davidson, Bloch, Silverburgh, Zelazny and many others. One standout for me is "The Human Operators", his story with A.E. Van Vogt, which contains a weird space story told in a wonderful lyrical style.

    I regret having to hold back a star for this edition. My copy was in old 60s-70s paperback format, with print smaller than anyone publishes these days. I had to hold it in my face in bright light to read the yellowed pages. Any other kind of portable screen is much friendlier to the eyes, & can be read in bed. It's a sad thing that masterpiece like this won't be read because of publishers who can't keep with modern media.

    I didn't order this book until I heard that HE had passed and realized that I didn't have a copy of it in my library. I wonder whether he was aware that the running heads for the title were misspelled? (Parnters in Wonder on each recto page.) That would really have made him mad.
