This is the future....
According to this book, we should all be jetting off to far flung planets inhabited by exotic beauties and slimy aliens, and smoking on the rocket ships whilst wearing a cape and gun. All the men are muscley pilots and all the women are wasp waisted and impossibly glamorous. It's absolute tosh, and I absolutely love it!!
The stories 9/10 times have a twist at the end, and half the fun is trying to work out what that twist may be, some are groan-inducing and others are quite surprising.
These books are expensive, but they are worth it, the artwork is stunning, and the stories are worth re-reading over and over again.

Perfect for anyone who loves the retro sci-fi look and feel of the 50s.
