I thought the first and last stories were excellent, the others so so, great writing, first time I've read anything of his that wasn't Dune saga.
Indeholder "Try to Remember", "Old Rambling House", "Murder Will In", "Mindfield", "The Priests of Psi".
"Try to Remember" handler om ???
"Old Rambling House" handler om Ted og Martha Graham, der bytter deres autocamper med et hus. De andre er Clint Rush og hans kone Raimee. De kører ud til huset, som umiddelbart virker til at være meget mere værd end autocamperen, så Ted og Martha slår til. Desværre viser det sig at de er blevet narret til at erstatte det andet ægtepar, som er Rojac's ejendom. Og Rojac er ikke til sidst at lade dem slippe. Tværtimod vil Rojac gerne finde den planet som Ted og Martha kommer fra, men det er ikke så let. Bortset fra at Clint Rush er mentalt forpligtet til at melde sig, for Martha er gravid og show more hendes barn har jo så ikke indvilget i sin skæbne.

Frank Herbert was born Franklin Patrick Herbert, Jr. in Tacoma, Washington on October 8, 1920. He worked originally as a journalist, but then turned to science fiction. His Dune series has had a major impact on that genre. Some critics assert that Herbert is responsible for bringing in a new branch of ecological science fiction. He had a personal show more interest in world ecology, and consulted with the governments of Vietnam and Pakistan about ecological issues. The length of some of Herbert's novels also helped make it acceptable for science fiction authors to write longer books. It is clear that, if the reader is engaged by the story---and Herbert certainly has the ability to engage his readers---length is not important. As is usually the case with popular fiction, it comes down to whether or not the reader is entertained, and Herbert is, above all, an entertaining and often compelling writer. His greatest talent is his ability to create new worlds that are plausible to readers, in spite of their alien nature, such as the planet Arrakis in the Dune series. Frank Herbert died of complications from pancreatic cancer on February, 11, 1986, in Madison, Wisconsin. He was 65. (Bowker Author Biography) show less
