  The Philip K. Dick Short Story Collection - 5 Lost Sci-Fi Short Stories from the 1940s, 50s and 60s written by Philip K. Dick 
  The Hanging Stranger - Ed had always been a practical man, when he saw something was wrong he tried to correct it. Then one day he saw it hanging in the town square. From the lamppost something was hanging. A shapeless dark bundle, swinging a little with the wind. Like a dummy of some sort. Loyce rolled down his window and peered out. What the hell was it? A display of some kind? Sometimes the Chamber of Commerce put up displays in the square. 
  The Gun - Nothing moved or stirred. Everything was silent, dead. Only the gun showed signs of life ... and the trespassers had wrecked that for all time. The return journey to pick up the treasure would be a cinch ... they smiled. 
  Beyond The Door - Larry Thomas bought a cuckoo clock for his wife—without knowing the price he would have to pay. That night at the dinner table he brought it out and set it down beside her plate. Doris stared at it, her hand to her mouth. "My God, what is it?" She looked up at him, bright-eyed. 
  Beyond Lies The Wub - The slovenly wub might well have said: Many men talk like philosophers and live like fools. They had almost finished with the loading. Outside stood the Optus, his arms folded, his face sunk in gloom. Captain Franco walked leisurely down the gangplank, grinning. 
  The Eyes Have It - A little whimsy, now and then, makes for good balance. Theoretically, you could find this type of humor anywhere. But only a topflight science-fictionist, we thought, could have written this story, in just this way…

  The Mirrors of Tuzun Thune -...

  The Mirrors of Tuzun Thune is an early fantasy tale by Robert E. Howard featuring Kull, the brooding king of Valusia. Restless on his throne and questioning the nature of reality, Kull seeks wisdom from Tuzun Thune, a mysterious sage whose room of mirrors reflects more than mere images. What begins as philosophical curiosity slowly becomes a quiet descent — Kull finds himself drawn toward a reflection that seems to hold another world, another truth, or perhaps a trap. The story is short, reflective, and atmospheric, more concerned with mood and metaphysics than with swordplay. It shows Howard exploring ideas of identity, illusion, and the thin line between thought and madness. 
  The piece stands apart in Howard’s work for its stillness and tone. Instead of battlefields and roaring steel, we get silence, glass, and doubt. It’s a glimpse of the inward-facing side of a writer best known for outward violence and heroism. Through Kull’s struggle to trust his own senses, the tale anticipates Howard’s later fascination with unseen worlds beneath ordinary life. 
  Robert E. Howard (1906–1936) was an American pulp writer whose vivid imagination helped define modern fantasy. Raised in small-town Texas, he sold stories to Weird Tales, creating enduring figures such as Conan the Barbarian, Solomon Kane, and King Kull. His work blended myth, physicality, and a strong sense of fatalism, often set in invented pre-historic ages. Though he died young, Howard’s influence on fantasy fiction has been enormous — his characters moved beyond magazines into comics, films, and games, shaping how readers picture warriors, wizards, and lost kingdoms. Beneath the violence and adventure ran a steady current of poetry and melancholy, both of which are clearly felt in The Mirrors of Tuzun Thune.
