Tally Ho!

It’s a bit of a rough ride.

I've also had trouble with old A.E. Pretty much bounced off The Weapon Shops of Isher. Didn't mind The Winged Man, many decades ago. Never got around to Null A. Luckily, I've got Rog for that.

His prose is just so clunky, and the main theme so vague. Though I recall enjoying Slan, long ago.

That's pretty much how I remember Weapon Shops. I know I dnf'd. I must have read some of his short stories but can't recall any by name.

Were they from Voyage of the Space Beagle?
I’ve heard good things about those stories.

That title rings a few bells but I honestly don't recall. I know that I've read enough anthologies that van Vogt has to be in there, somewhere.
