Description: SPACE,TIME & CRIMEEdited by MIRIAM ALLEN DEFORDCover art by RICHARD POWERSPublished by POPULAR LIBRARY, INC.; 1st printing, Nov., 1964 CONDITION: Considerable shelfwear on covers, very slight staining on first and last two or three pages (very slight); generally pages are fine and well bound. I’m calling it GOOD. {This was difficult to list under specific headings… but should be listed under both science fiction and crime.} Authors within this collection, and their stories, are listed in photograph #4. Commentaries on line: This anthology combined my love of science fiction stories with my love of crime/detective stories into one fantastic anthology of science fiction crime stories from the 1950s and 1960s. Not science fiction and crime stories, but stories that mash the two genres into one wonderful new thing. Really liked this… Classic blend of science fiction and crime/mystery short stories from the early days. In this anthology, Miriam Allen deFord brings together a group of science fiction stories, including one of her own, that combine the science fiction genre with its brother on the pulp racks, the crime/detective story. As she states in her introduction: "The interest in the unknown, but knowable, which moves the mystery story writer moves the science fiction writer as well. In consequence, both writers often turn out to be the same person." With contributions from Isaac Asimov, Poul and Karen Anderson, Fritz Leiber, and many others, this is no throw-away anthology. The stories are carefully selected, expertly written, and really do a nice job of combining the two genres. _____________________Modern shipping charges keep going higher and higher.
