Book and wrapper remained good even though it belonged to a library before - 192 pg. - Same edition Google image used - 1st Edition published by Gollancz in 1974. >>> A nice collection of 5 short-ish stories from an author that I had only heard of from an old sci-fi guide that I have. The 1st story, Casey Agonistes gave me a slight "catcher in the rye" feel with it's funny "in your face" writing style. A funny and sad story, very good. 2nd was Hunter Come Home which I also thought was very good. I would bet money that James Cameron got some of his ideas for his planet Pandora, in the movie Avatar, from this story. 3rd up was The Secret ...... >>> If I were putting together an anthology of the best fantasy stories from the middle of the Twentieth Century, "Casey Agonistes" would definitely be included. It's a wonderful story, far and away my favorite in this book. I don't think it has dated at all.
