Harlan Ellison : Partners in Wonder: Stories before purchasing it in order to gage whether or not it would be worth my time, and all praised Partners in Wonder: Stories:

0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Another very good collectionBy Ronnie TylerA good collection of stories by Ellison in collaboration with other leading writers of the day. I enjoyed it, and even Ellison’s preface to each story was interesting. Some funny, some weird, some more space travel themed, but only one of the stories was a sort of clunker story. A good find. My favorite stories were:The Song the Zombie SangThe Prowler in the City at the Edge of the WorldHuman OperatorsRecommended.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. More for my collectionBy LeighI happened across "Shatterday" in a local bookstore many years ago and have worshipped Harlan ever since--I'm so happy to find these releases so I can finish my collection (bows humbly to the Master)...2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. The Intros are as Interesting as the Stories...By Philip P. GiuntaAs an avid admirer of Harlan Ellison, I was excited to find a cache of his books in fine to excellent condition at a used bookstore late last year. It was a rare and wonderful discovery, as I hardly ever find Harlan’s backlist in such a quantity in any single location.Partners in Wonder was one of the books I found that day. It is an anthology of collaborative stories between Harlan and some of the most famous SF and speculative fiction writers of that Golden Age such as , , A.E. Van Vogt, , and others.While these may not be considered the best works from Harlan or his co-conspirators—which Harlan himself admits in one instance during his brief introduction to “The Power of the Nail”—there is a wide variety of tales that demonstrate the depth and breadth of these august scribes. All told, it is an entertaining collection.Speaking of Harlan’s introductions, each story has one and I enjoyed being regaled by his recollections of how each collaboration was born as much, if not more in some cases, than the stories themselves.My favorites yarns in the bunch include:I See a Man Sitting on a Chair, and the Chair is Biting His Leg – written with Robert SheckleyUp Christopher to Madness – written with Avram DavidsonThe Human Operators – written with A.E. Van VogtWonderbird – written with Algis BudrysThe Song the Zombie Sang – written with Robert SilverbergStreet Scene – written with

Robert Bloch, Ben Bova, Algis Budrys, Avram Davidson, Samuel R. Delany, Joe L. Hensley, Keith Laumer, William Rotsler, Robert Sheckley, Robert Silverberg, , Theodore Sturgeon, A. E. Van Vogt, Roger Zelazny, and Harlan Ellison, unassisted. If you mix Ellison with wild talents like those names listed above, you have got a book as unique as the Abominable Snowperson. Here is the first collection of collaborative stories ever created, each deranged vision complete with introduction (in the patented Ellison manner) explaining how the story was written and who gets the blame. The lunatic mind of Harlan Ellison strikes again. About the AuthorHarlan Ellison has been called “one of the great living American short story writers” by the Washington Post. In a career spanning more than fifty years, he has won more awards than any other living fantasist. Ellison has written or edited one hundred fourteen books; more than seventeen hundred stories, essays, articles, and newspaper columns; two dozen teleplays; and a dozen motion pictures. He has won the eight and a half times (shared once); the three times; the Bram Stoker Award, presented by the Horror Writers Association, five times (including the Lifetime Achievement Award in 1996); the Edgar Award of the Mystery Writers of America twice; the Georges Melies Fantasy Film Award twice; and two Audie Awards (for the best in audio recordings); and he was awarded the Silver Pen for Journalism by PEN, the international writers’ union. He was presented with the first Living Legend Award by the International Horror Critics at the 1995 World Horror Convention. Ellison is the only author in Hollywood ever to win the Writers Guild of America award for Outstanding Teleplay (solo work) four times, most recently for “Paladin of the Lost Hour,” his Twilight Zone episode that was Danny Kaye’s final role, in 1987. In 2006, Ellison was awarded the prestigious title of Grand Master by the and Fantasy Writers of America. Dreams With Sharp Teeth, the documentary chronicling his life and works, was released on DVD in May 2009.
