Tunnel Out of Death
by Jamil NasirIn Jamil Nasir's Tunnel Out of Death, Heath Ransom, former police psychic turned machine-enhanced "endovoyant" private investigator, is hired to find the consciousness of the rich and comatose Margaret Biel and return it to her body. Tracking her through the etheric world, he comes upon a strange and terrifying object that appears to be a tear in the very fabric of reality.

But he starts to suspect the good guys may not be so good after all. With Rachel's help, Jake has to try to escape both good guys and bad guys and find a way to live his own life instead of tunneling through others.

Turn Left at Thursday
by Frederik PohlFrederik Pohl is a very fine fellow--fondly known in science fiction circles for the social commentary in the satires he has written in collaboration with C. M. Kornbluth, and under his own authorship. Aficionados know also that Pohl's science fiction is strictly non-fantastic--in fact even old-fashioned in its adherence to the rules of the game. But when Pohl does get into fantasy, he goes way out, giving the imagination full rein. And his imagination is rare, rich and ribald. The stories in this collection include: Mars by Moonlight; The Richest Man in Levitown; The Seven Deadly Virtues; The Martian in the Attic; Third Offense; The Hated; I Plinglot, Who You?
