Planet of the Damned and Other Stories: A Science Fiction Anthology (Five Books in One Volume!)

Planet of the Damned and Other Stories: A Science Fiction Anthology (Five Books in One Volume!)NOTE: This edition has a linked "Table of Contents" and has been beautifully formatted (searchable and interlinked) to work on your Amazon e-book reader or your iPod e-book reader.

Anthology of classic science fiction stories by science fiction author Harry Harrison.

In this volume:
Book One: The Repairman
Being an interstellar trouble shooter wouldn’t be so bad...

Book Two: The Misplaced Battleship
It might seem a little careless to lose track of something as big as a battleship... but interstellar space is on a different scale of magnitude. But a misplaced battleship--in the wrong hands!--can be most dangerous.

Book Three: The K-Factor
Speed never hurt anybody--it's the sudden stop at the end. It's not how much change that signals danger, but how fast it's changing....

Book Four: Planet of the Damned
Brion has just won the Twenties--a global competition that tests ones' achievements in 20 categories of human activities. But Brion must leave his world to help salvage the world of Dis, the most hellish planet in the galaxy...

Book Five: Toy Shop
The gadget was strictly, beyond any question, a toy--not a real, workable device. Except for the way it could work under a man's mental skin...

A must-read for classic sci-fi and pulp-fiction fans!
