I must agree. Lots of fine reading in that anthology. Everything from the sharp prose of Black Mask boys at their best (it's always worth reading Dent's 'Sail' again) to melodramatic pulp excess ('Sinister Sphere', Davis's very first Moon Man story). Never enough collections like this one.

This collection is fantastic. The Lunatic Plague by Wandrei... what can I say? It's written as if by a lunatic! One of the best anthologies of pulp stories, especially for the variety. Includes Fritz Lieber, always interesting.
