  Adam and No Eve by Alfred Bester - The last living man on a world rendered utterly lifeless by all–consuming fire– how could he start life alone? 
  Alfred Bester (1913–1987) was an American science fiction writer, screenwriter, and editor, best known for his groundbreaking novels The Demolished Man (1953) and The Stars My Destination (1956). Born in New York City, Bester studied at the University of Pennsylvania and later worked as a writer for comics, radio, and television before making his mark in science fiction. 
  His career took off in the 1940s with short stories published in Astounding Science Fiction and Galaxy Science Fiction. His writing was innovative, blending psychological depth, linguistic playfulness, and a breakneck narrative style. In 1953, The Demolished Man, a futuristic crime novel featuring telepathic detectives, won the first-ever Hugo Award for Best Novel. The Stars My Destination, a revenge-fueled space odyssey inspired by The Count of Monte Cristo, became a cult classic, often cited as a precursor to cyberpunk. 
  Bester’s work influenced writers like Philip K. Dick, William Gibson, and Roger Zelazny. His use of non-linear storytelling, inner monologues, and typography experimentation set him apart. Though he published sporadically after the 1950s, he remained a key figure in the genre.

  A Traveler in Time by August Derleth - You can't always escape evils by running away from them... but it may help! 
  "Tell me what time is," said Harrigan one late summer afternoon in a Madison Street bar. "I'd like to know." 
  "A dimension," I answered. "Everybody knows that." 
  "All right, granted. I know space is a dimension and you can move forward or back in space. And, of course, you keep on aging all the time." 
  "Elementary," I said. 
  "But what happens if you can move backward or forward in time? Do you age or get younger, or do you keep the status quo?" 
  "I'm not an authority on time, Tex. Do you know anyone who traveled in time?" 
  Harrigan shrugged aside my question. "That was the thing I couldn't get out of Vanderkamp, either. He presumed to know everything else." 
  "Vanderkamp?" 
  "He was another of those strange people a reporter always runs into. Lived in New York—downtown, near the Bowery. Man of about forty, I'd say, but a little on the old-fashioned side. Dutch background, and hipped on the subject of New Amsterdam, which, in case you don't know, was the original name of New York City." 
  "Don't mind my interrupting," I cut in. "But I'm not quite straight on what Vanderkamp has to do with time as dimension." 
  "Oh, he was touched on the subject. He claimed to travel in it. The fact is, he invented a time-traveling machine."
