Another is the old prospector Eli, whose surprising discoveries on Mercury get him killed in &“Spaceship in a Flask.&” In &“Huddling Place,&” a man with paralyzing agoraphobia is the only one who can save the life of a dear friend on Mars—if he can bear to make the trip. And in the title story, aliens slowly take over Earth while humans leave it behind and head for the Homestead Planets. Each story includes an introduction by David W. Wixon, literary executor of the Clifford D. Simak estate and editor of this ebook.

And someone was riding it, like a witch on a broom. The person was all hunched over, not very big, with a long black-and-white checked cape flowing out behind. And the warlock--for that's who it was--had a three-cornered cap on, and from under that cap hung a long scarf, or maybe even a long braid. There was no question about it. That's exactly what I saw.
