it doesn't end there. With a carefully selected series of stories

a couple humorous ones, just for fun, Where Worlds Collide is a
marvelous compendium of tales of the future and the very weird,
Whether you love post-apocalyptic plagues, aliens, bizarre
creatures, lost star ships in space, worm holes to worlds in the
throes of nuclear war, horribly destroyed civilizations, gory
murder in deep space, or things Lovecraftian, you can bet that
