The Timeless Tales of Reginald Bretnor contains 15 of the author's best short stories, all previously published in national magazines between 1947 and the author's death in 1992. Several of these were republished in book anthologies, but this is the first collection of Bretnor short stories in one volume. These tales range from fantasy to mystery to soft science fiction. Most of them provide excellent examples of Bretnor's delightful sense of humor. They make for light and fun reading and will appeal to anyone who likes a good, old-fashioned, clever, well-told story which often leaves you with a smile on your face at the end. For this reason the book makes an excellent gift for any occasion. (But read it yourself first!)
