      Science has elevated war to a hi-tech killing art. The armaments and countermeasures of today's war toys are childlike compared to what a violent future holds in store for battlefields across the galaxy.At the vanguard of tomorrow's armies are tanks. Powerful and deadly behemoths, armed from tread to turret, crushing everything in their path as they thunder into battle across alien worlds. 5 • The HORARS of War • (1970) • Gene Wolfe23 • I Made You • (1954) • Walter M.

      These fantastic tales are as fresh and relevant today as they were when they first appeared in the 1940s, the Golden Age of Science Fiction. Theodore Sturgeon’s “Killdozer!” details the liberation of a mutant energy force with intelligence and a will to destroy. “With Folded Hands,” by Jack Williamson, unfolds a terrifying vision of the future where humanoid mechanisms secure “happiness” for all human beings. In a corrupt empire to come, “The Weapons Shop” of A.E. van Vogt’s world may be the only source for legal and moral justice. Plus, there’s an early “Foundation” tale by Issac Asimov, and many other brilliant examples by C.L. Moore, Lester del Rey, and more.

      Asimov’s Ghosts & Monsters
    • Jedna z klasických antologií Isaaca Asimova obsahuje především humoristické povídky, které svým poselstvím nijak nezestárly. Navíc se dá říct, že tyto historky o dodnes neutuchajících lidských snahách využít a zneužít počítače k vlastním záměrům získaly časem vysloveně roztomilou patinu. Vydejte se s námi do divukrásné země děrných štítků a šprýmujících obřích počítačů…
