Charlie covered his eyes with his mutated paws. "That was a close one, Frank." The asteroid, so huge in the viewfield a moment ago, dwindled in the wake of our cruiser to the size of a pebble, got smaller, and... - The Terran was in a telephone booth on Telegraph Avenue when the invisible alien scout from Rigel 9 wafted along on a breeze and noticed him... - They are taking readings in the ruined creche at Am Samirya, an outlying district of Siraga IV's capital-and only-city, and their guide has just shooed away the beggar with opaque irisless eyes and skin the color of bruises... - I was just finishing my third caipirinha and watching the sweat glisten on my knees and the breakers roll in toward Guanabara Bay when the translucent arc of a green wave deposited Jim on the wet sand. It was the fourth time I'd seen his corpse this week...
