Constellations

Edited by Malcolm Edwards

Having complained in his intro of SF anthology covers depicting 'a variety of vast and improbable machinery', Malcolm Edwards must be well pleased with Puffin. (or was it Penguin? You can buy their edition for £1.50 if you wish.) Still, he shouldn't complain too much --- a children's paperback publisher which paid more attention to detail would very likely have ignored his collection altogether since it's not one to reach beyond the narrow circle of the already converted. It's the usual Clarke. Vonnegut, Ballard, Shockley stuff --- a few good things if you like SF and are bright/mature enough to cope. For selected class libraries.
