These short stories are my bread and butter of reading. Each story 10ish pages packed with the fine details of a truly bizarre premise.
Think Twilight Zone, or Black Mirror. . . the episodes that make you a little uneasy due to it hitting hard on the truths of human nature. I love it, slowly savoring each page.
Highlight: "Why Johnny Can't Speed" could easily be read as a prequel to Mad Max. 10 stars.

"He" is excellent. A Pacific Islander Jaws.
"They'd encountered a terror whose physiological effect was even more overwhelming than its reality. It did not belong to the world of men, this perfect unmatched killing machine. How puny man seemed, how feeble his invented efforts at destruction."
Living in Hawaii, I've felt this over gentle giant honu, lol. The open ocean is their home, not ours.

I started thrifting old fantasy pocket books with riviting covers about 13 years ago. I've only read a few so far. I figure it's time to start making a dent in them.
This one is a short story collection. $1.75 when it was released in 1977 per the cover.
I am tickled by the cover illustration. I wish more authors would hire artists for their books nowadays. Hopefully the contents are just as good!
