Critics Review
“Ellison, a major figure in twentieth-century science fiction, died in 2018. His short stories, some of which provided the basis for episodes of The Twilight Zone, ‘ripped my mind open and showed me what the possibilities of fiction were,’ Neil Gaiman writes in the foreword to this new collection of Ellison’s best-known work.”
“Harlan Ellison was, after all, one of the most interesting humans on Earth. He was one of the greatest and most influential science fiction writers alive. He marched with Martin Luther King, Jr. in Selma, lectured to college kids, visited with death row inmates, and once mailed a dead gopher to a publisher. Ellison brought a literary sensibility to sci-fi at a time when the entire establishment was allergic to any notion of art. To say he was one-of-a-kind would be trite, and he would likely hate that. What he was, was a legend.”
