The Day of the Boomer Dukes
Just as medicine is not a science, but rather an art--a device, practised in a scientific manner, in its best manifestations--time-travel stories are not science fiction. Time-travel, however, has become acceptable to science fiction readers as a traditional device in stories than are otherwise admissible in the genre. Here, Frederik Pohl employs it to portray the amusingly catastrophic meeting of three societies.
The Hated-
After space, there was always one more river to cross ... the far side of hatred and murder!
The Knights of Arthur-
With one suitcase as his domain, Arthur was desperately in need of armed henchmen … for his keys to a kingdom were typewriter keys!
Pythias-
Sure, Larry Connaught saved my life—but it was how he did it that forced me to murder him!
The Tunnel Under The World-
Pinching yourself is no way to see if you are dreaming. Surgical instruments? Well, yes—but a mechanic's kit is best of all!
