Ten tales of wonder, danger, and the future—including the Hugo
and Nebula Award–winning title story—from the science fiction
Grand Master. This volume contains ten stellar short stories by
Clifford D. Simak, “the most underrated great science fiction
writer alive” (Theodore Sturgeon). In “Grotto of the Dancing
Deer,” a man carrying an ancient secret finally speaks up, unable
to bear any longer the loneliness he has experienced for millennia.
In “Over the River,” which Simak wrote in memory of his beloved
grandmother Ellen, children from an embattled future are sent back
for safekeeping to their ancestors in the peaceful past. And in
“Day of Truce,” the inhabitants of a suburban subdivision must
barricade themselves against bands of roving attackers. On only one
day each year do the gates open wide . . . Each story
includes an introduction by David W. Wixon, literary executor of
the Clifford D. Simak estate and editor of this book.
