    About this ebook

    During the 1950s, Evelyn E. Smith regularly published science fiction in magazines like Galaxy and Fantastic Universe. Her stories ranged from post-apocalyptic satires to adventure to humor. She also wrote four science fiction novels, which chiefly deal with questions of gender identity. Like all of her work, they are characterized by their sharp wit. At her best, she was the equal of anyone -- male or female -- writing for the pulp magazines.


    This volume collects 12 of her short stories, including:


    TEA TRAY IN THE SKY

    NOT FIT FOR CHILDREN

    COLLECTOR'S ITEM

    THE DOORWAY

    THE VILBAR PARTY

    HELPFULLY YOURS

    THE VENUS TRAP

    THE MOST SENTIMENTAL MAN

    ONCE A GREECH

    THE BLUE TOWER

    MY FAIR PLANET

    SENTRY IN THE SKY
