Stephen Lives: His Life, Suicide and Afterlife by Puryear

In this new anthology, Ben Bova has compiled fourteen of his favorite short stories. Each story includes an all-new introduction with compelling insight into the narrative.

Exploring the boundaries of the genre, Bova not only writes of spaceships, aliens, and time travel in most of his titles, but also speculates on the beginnings of science fiction in Scheherazade and the Storytellers, as well as the morality of man in The Angel's Gift. Stories such as The Caf Coup and We'll Always Have Paris dip into speculative historical fiction, asking questions about what would happen if someone could change history for the better. This expansive collection is a key addition for Bova fans and sci-fi lovers alike

Stories included in this anthology: Monster Slayer, Muzhestvo, We'll Always Have Paris, The Great Moon Hoax, or A Princess of Mars, Inspiration, Scheherazade and the Storytellers, The Supersonic Zeppelin, Mars Farts, The Man Who Hated Gravity, Sepulcher, The Caf Coup, The Angel's Gift, Waterbot, and Sam and the Flying Dutchman.
