In the tradition of the old Ace Doubles (flip one book over to read
the second title), here's the twenty-eighth Wildside Double: THE
WAR WITH THE BELATRIN: Science Fiction Stories, by Don Webb. The
alien Belatrin are the "Other." They look like us, they organize
their society like ours, yet even the slightest contact with them
leads humans to madness. Here are seven encounters from a war in
space that leads to a species-changing moment of synthesis and
transformation, including the classic, award-winning novella, "The
Five Biographies of General Gerrhan." First-rate space opera in the
grand style A VELVET OF VAMPYRES: Tales of Horror, by Don Webb.
It's a "murder" of crows and a "parliament" of owls. For bats, the
genus is "velvet," and hence also for vampires. We like the older
spelling, the one John Polidori gave us when he alerted the world
to their presence. They're here--dominating our dreams, our fears,
our media. But what if they aren't boy-band-pretty with diamond
sparkly skin? What if they're more dangerous because they're Desire
herself? What if they're behind deep erotic urges AND the desire to
write a poem? What if they live in the need to tear open a bright
shiny Christams present AND the desire to drink hot red blood
burning bright in the night? Seven great tales of the living undead
by a Master of the Order of the Vampyre. Caveat lector
General
