But Hurst's fresh look at the stories, and how the future has changed around them, gives new insight. “The members of the SFWA put together a great selection. They could not recognise, though, even so recently as the 1970s, that every story would gain something or fail to shine so brightly from circumstances of the time in which it was read." Of course, so much more time has passed now; when the SFWA voted to select the stories they were comparatively recent history.

  • FOREWORD, by Bryan Ellershaw
    FOREWORD, by Bryan Ellershaw FOREWORD, by Bryan Ellershaw www.dalesmithonline.com FOREWORD, by Bryan Ellershaw It’s traditional to start these introductions with a glowing report of the author’s skills, and even a jolly little anecdote about how you first came across their work. Well, here’s a break from tradition: I’d never heard of Dale Smith before this work landed on my doorstep, and – to be honest with you – I barely noticed his writing as I ripped through the words. Which I suppose could be taken as some kind of compliment, although it isn’t really intended to be. But still this novella gripped me from the moment I opened the manila package it arrived in. Not for the author, I assure you, but for another name on that lurid cover. Honoré Lechasseur. Another break from tradition: if I can’t tell you anything about my relationship with the author, let me instead tell you about the first time I came across the name Honoré Lechasseur. 1 www.dalesmithonline.com FOREWORD, by Bryan Ellershaw I was about 11 years old, a precocious child who thought that reading ten years above my age made me somehow more mature than my contemporaries. I devoured any book I could get my hands on, so long as I could find it shelved in the adult section of the library. Many times, I had to get my father to check the books out for me, as they were unable to let me borrow them on a child’s ticket meant for Meg and Mog and little more.
