The Furious Future At last available in paperback after many years out of print, a classic collection of stories which prompted the very highest praise from the leading SF critics.If all goes well, he may become the best science fiction writer since Wells - Kingsley Amis, ObserverThe themes cover aliens, time travel psionics, mutations - but treated in a cock-eyed way that is peculiarly Budrys's.

Result: totally absorbing - Tom Boardman Jr., Books and BookmenCover Illustration: Jim Burns
