Armchair Fiction presents extra large paperback collections of the best in classic science fiction short stories. Enjoy our fifteenth collection of Science Fiction Gems, which features some great fiction by brilliant writers. These stories are a pretty brilliant group—a real nice batch to cozy up to. If you’re searching for the perfect woman, try “Accept No Substitutes,” but you may find out that too much perfection is not always a good thing. If you love innocent little kids, you may learn that innocence and evil are not that far apart in “Zero Hour.” “The Thing in the Truck” should satisfy your cravings for potatoes, only make sure they’re well cooked. Like a good murder mystery? Try out “Earth Transit” for a nifty whodunit in outer space. “The Man With X-Ray Eyes” shows you how blind ambition can make you see a whole lot more than just the simple facts. And “Someday” will give you a bird’s eye view of the entire phenomenon of self-awareness. All in all, there are some grand futuristic thrills waiting for you in the pages of this new collection; so be bold and step into the future.
