5.0 out of 5 stars
A book about a batch of not-your-average-monsters,
By Raul S Reyes (Berkeley, Ca USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: A Pride of Monsters (Hardcover)
A series of stories, mostly set in Schmitz's Hub Universe, with some very unusual aliens. Not your usual black and white stories. The monsters are interesting, have good reasons for what they do, and give the humans a run for their money. The humans are as interesting as the aliens. Schmitz always pulls a rabbit out the hat. But sometimes it's not a rabbit..., and sometimes the hat is not what you thought it was. A lot of fun. Schmitz did a lot of other alien-human stories set in the Hub. I'd like to see them all collected somewhere. Maybe some publisher will take the hint?

4.0 out of 5 stars
A great collection of Schmitz's short stories,
By A Customer
This review is from: A Pride of Monsters (Hardcover)
Unfortunately the book is currently hard to find. Most of these stories take place in Schmitz's future universe, involving characters from other novels. I particularly liked the stronge female "heros" with the image of a future well balanced between male & female power. These are adventure stories of the "Space Opera" type, in a world where good and evil are pretty in black and white
