Released in 1952, Judgment Night collects five Moore novellas from
the pages of editor John W. Campbell, Jr.'s Astounding Science
Fiction magazine: ''Judgment Night'' (first published in August and
September, 1943) balances a lush rendering of a future galactic
empire with a sober meditation on the nature of power and its
inevitable loss; ''The Code'' (July, 1945) pays homage to the
classic Faust with modern theories and Lovecraftian dread;
''Promised Land'' (February, 1950) and ''Heir Apparent'' (July,
1950) both document the grim twisting that mankind must undergo in
order to spread into the solar system; ''Paradise Street''
(September, 1950) shows a futuristic take on the old western
conflict between lone hunter and wilderness-taming settlers. Chosen
by the author herself as the best of her longer-form writing, these
stories show a gifted wordsmith working at the height of her
talents.
