Stellar Science Fiction Stories 1

Remember the story that first turned you on to science fiction and perhaps made you a fan for life? Who, if anyone, is writing fiction--especially short fiction--like that now? And where is it being published?
Science fiction should be fun...should offer some of that sense of wonder and achievement we used to expect as a matter of course. And that is what the Stellar series is all about.
This first volume showcases superior short stories by the major writers in the field--with each story in print here for the first time anywhere.
