Audible Editor Reviews
Actor Steven Menasche is often hired as the voice of "the guy next door"
in his many national and television campaigns, but in his performance
of The Edge of Tomorrow, he branches out of the neighborhood to become
a giant ant, a Martian, and a feral child - or at least to animate them
from the page.
Howard Fast wrote more than 80 books, including Spartacus, Citizen Tom
Paine, and April Morning, both under his own name and the pseudonyms
E. V. Cunningham and Walter Ericson. He also tried his hand at screenplays
and genre writing like mysteries, and in the case of The Edge of Tomorrow,
science fiction.
Publisher's Summary
Vintage science fiction tales from an American master
Big bugs, cloned cats, and feral star-children play leading roles in
collection. The Edge of Tomorrow is a significant foray into science
beyond our universe, Fast reveals much about the America of his time
- where the Cold War and a nascent civil rights movement stoked unconscious
fears and desires. From "The First Men", about scientists tampering
violence against nature, these stories are as relevant today as when
they were first written.
