    The Planetoid of Peril by Paul Ernst - Undaunted by crazy tales of an indestructible presence on Asteroid Z-40, Harley 2Q14N20 sets out alone to face and master it. 
    Harley 2Q14N20 stopped for a moment outside the great dome of the Celestial Developments Company. Moodily he stared at their asteroid development chart. It showed, as was to be expected, the pick of the latest asteroid subdivision projects: the Celestial Developments Company, established far back in 2045, would handle none but the very best. Small chance of his finding anything here! 
    However, as he gazed at the chart, hope came suddenly to his face, and his heart beat high under his sapphire blue tunic. There was an asteroid left for sale there—one blank space among the myriad, pink-lettered Sold symbols. Could it be that here was the chance he had been hunting so desperately? 
    He bent closer, to read the description of the sphere, and the hope faded gradually from his countenance. According to its orbit and location, and the spectroscopic table of its mineral resources, it was a choice planetoid indeed. Of course such a rich little sphere, listed for sale by the luxurious Celestial Developments Company, would cost far more than he could ever rake together to pay for an asteroid. 
    Shaking his head, he adjusted his gravity regulator to give him about a pound and a half of weight, and started to float on. Then, his lips twisting at his own absurd hopefulness, he stopped again; and after another moment of indecision turned into the archway that led to the concern's great main office. After all, it wouldn't hurt to inquire the price, even though he knew in advance it would be beyond his humble means.

    Maci is an odd little goth girl living in the quaint town of Whimsyville, where every building is pastel-colored and every person is overly cheerful. Her best friend is Roland, an oversized, grumpy dog who loves nothing more than good food and sleeping. 
    After a few failed attempts to adopt the sunny disposition of those around her and fit in, Maci finds herself at the town’s square where the event of the year is announced: Hero of Whimsyville. A brilliant idea pops into her mind that she believes is the key to being finally accepted. What if Roland joins the contest and wins? 
    What follows is an adventure—and a bit of fun misadventure—that will bring Maci so much more than what she initially hoped.

    Fondly Fahrenheit by Alfred Bester - On Paragon III, amidst endless rice fields under a burning orange sky, a sinister discovery sparks an intense manhunt. Escape and survival hinge on unraveling the mystery of an android capable of murder. 
    He doesn’t know which of us I am these days, but they know one truth. You must own nothing but yourself. You must make your own life, live your own life and die your own death ... or else you will die another’s. 
    The rice fields on Paragon III stretch for hundreds of miles like checkerboard tundras, a blue and brown mosaic under a burning. sky of orange. 
    In the evening, clouds whip like smoke, and the paddies rustle and murmur. A long line of men marched across the paddies the evening we escaped from Paragon III. They were silent, armed, intent; a long rank of silhouetted statues looming against the smoking sky. Each man carried a gun. Each man wore a walkie-talkie belt pack, the speaker button in his ear, the microphone bug clipped to his throat, the glowing view-screen strapped to his wrist like a green-eyed watch. The multitude of screens showed nothing but a multitude of individual paths through the paddies. The annunciators uttered no sound but the rustle and splash of steps.  
    The men spoke infrequently, in heavy grunts, all speaking to all. 
    "Nothing here.” 
    "Where’s here?” 
    “Jenson’s fields.” 
    “You’re drifting too far west.” 
    “Close in the line there.” 
    “Anybody covered the Grimson paddy?” 
    “Yeah. Nothing.” 
    “She couldn’t have walked this far.” 
    “Could have been carried.” 
    “Think she’s alive?” 
    “Why should she be dead?”
