Robert Silverberg's Monsters and Things

and Things: Book 1

Stephen Jones
Robert Silverberg

When you think of Hugo and Nebula Award-winning author Robert Sliverberg, you most probably think, 'Master of Science Fiction'. Or possibly, even 'Master of Fantasy'. However, what you would most likely never consider is 'Master of Horror'.

And yet, there was a time - in the late 1950s - when Robert Sliverberg was producing all kinds of stories: science fiction, crime fiction, men's adventure fiction, softcore porn and, yes even horror fiction!

In those days he was turning out an estimated million words a year, necessitating the use of multiple pseudonyms. Many of the stories published in this volume have never been reprinted before - they are drawn from a wide variety of magazine, from Fantastic and Super-Science Fiction to such rarities as Monster Parade and Monster and Things.

In these pages you will find twenty-seven tales by one of the most talented authors in any genre. Featuring vampires, werewolves, ghouls, mad scientists and, yes, monsters and things - both alien and terrestrial - they deserve to be rescued from obscurity.
