An Anthology containing works by .Bloch, van Vogt, Pohl, Spinrad, Silverberg & Farmer. Worth the read, if you can still find it. ( )

If you weren't privileged to know Forrest Ackerman in life, or at least to know of him, I'm sorry. He was everything, from one of the greatest fans to an actor, author, editor... I miss him. I really REALLY miss him.

This book is most notable for Frederik Pohl's 30th World SF Convention (1972) Guest of Honor Speech (The Shape of Science Fiction to Come). There are excellent stories in it, too, of course. ( )
