4.0 out of 5 stars
Decent Anthology
This book, which covers SF of the decade of the 1940's, is actually one volume of a series of books on "classic" sci-fi. The short novels in this book are fair; the volume contains some of the more popular tales (seen in SF anthologies everywhere), and some stories that don't get printed as often. Interesting note: The Introduction (penned by Isaac Asimov)...

1.0 out of 5 stars
An anthology to avoid
These stories are the least satisfying I've ever read and are, for the most part, from minor hitters and unknowns.

This review is from: Science Fiction: Classic Stories From The Golden Age of Science Fiction (Hardcover)
This book, which covers SF of the decade of the 1940's, is actually one volume of a series of books on "classic" sci-fi.The short novels in this book are fair; the volume contains some of the more popular tales (seen in SF anthologies everywhere), and some stories that don't get printed as often. Interesting note: The Introduction (penned by Isaac Asimov) refers to the work (sci-fi) of the 1940's as "The Age of John W. Campbell", whose work is notably absent from the volume. The short novels are: "Time Wants a Skeleton", Ross Rocklynne; "The Weapons Shop", A.E. van Vogt; "Nerves", Lester del Rey; "Daymare", Frederic Brown; "Killdozer!", Theodore Sturgeon; "No Woman Born", C.L. Moore; "The Big and the Little", Isaac Asimov; "Giant Killer", A. Bertram Chandler; "E for Effort", T.L. Sherred; "With Folded Hands", Jack Williamson
