  All Cats Are Gray

  All Cats Are Gray by Andre Norton - An odd story, made up of oddly assorted elements that include a man, a woman, a gray cat, a treasure—and an invisible being that had to be seen to be believed. 
  Steena of the spaceways—that sounds just like a corny title for one of the Stellar-Vedo spreads. I ought to know, I’ve tried my hand at writing enough of them. Only this Steena was no glamour babe. She was as colorless as a Lunar plant—even the hair netted down to her skull had a sort of grayish cast and I never saw her but once draped in anything but a shapeless and baggy gray space-all. 
  Steena was strictly background stuff and that is where she mostly spent her free hours—in the smelly smoky background corners of any stellar-port dive frequented by free spacers. If you really looked for her you could spot her—just sitting there listening to the talk—listening and remembering. She didn’t open her own mouth often. But when she did spacers had learned to listen. And the lucky few who heard her rare spoken words—these will never forget Steena. 
  She drifted from port to port. Being an expert operator on the big calculators she found jobs wherever she cared to stay for a time. And she came to be something like the master-minded machines she tended—smooth, gray, without much personality of her own. 
  But it was Steena who told Bub Nelson about the Jovan moon-rites—and her warning saved Bub’s life six months later. It was Steena who identified the piece of stone Keene Clark was passing around a table one night, rightly calling it unworked Slitite. That started a rush which made ten fortunes overnight for men who were down to their last jets. And, last of all, she cracked the case of the Empress of Mars.

  Buried beneath the Earth lies a secret older than civilization—and more dangerous than anyone imagined. 
  In Terror Out of the Past, science fiction pioneer Raymond Z. Gallun spins a thrilling tale of discovery, danger, and forgotten power. When explorer Perry Wilcox and scientist Dr. Roderick Murgatroyd unearth the ruins of an ancient, hidden civilization deep below a remote knoll, they awaken more than just dormant machines. Within the subterranean fortress lie powerful automatons, strange technologies, and the story of a civilization lost to time—and ambition. 
  But as the two men dig deeper into this underground world, they’re caught in a web of betrayal, miniaturization, and mechanized warfare. A corrupt businessman seeks to exploit the ruins for profit, unleashing chaos that draws in modern military might against ancient power. The survival of both the explorers and humanity itself may depend on unraveling the secrets of the past before it's too late. 
  Narrated by Ram Ranjini with thrilling clarity and emotional weight, this pulp-era gem is a high-stakes fusion of classic sci-fi adventure, mystery, and cautionary tale.

  Dust Unto Dust

  Dust Unto Dust by Lyman D. Hinckley - It was alien but was it dead, this towering, sinister city of metal that glittered malignantly before the cautious advance of three awed space-scouters. 
  Martin set the lifeboat down carefully, with all the attention one usually exercises in a situation where the totally unexpected has occurred, and he and his two companions sat and stared in awed silence at the city a quarter-mile away. 
  He saw the dull, black walls of buildings shouldering grimly into the twilight sky, saw the sheared edge where the metal city ended and the barren earth began ... and he remembered observing, even before they landed, the too-strict geometry imposed on the entire construction. 
  He frowned. The first impression was ... malignant. 
  Wass, blond and slight, with enough nose for three or four men, unbuckled his safety belt and stood up. "Shall we, gentlemen?" and with a graceful movement of hand and arm he indicated the waiting city. 
  Martin led Wass, and the gangling, scarecrow-like Rodney, through the stillness overlaying the barren ground. There was only the twilight sky, and harsh and black against it, the convoluted earth. And the city. Malignant. He wondered, again, what beings would choose to build a city—even a city like this one—in such surroundings. 
  The men from the ship knew only the surface facts about this waiting geometric discovery. Theirs was the eleventh inter-planetary flight, and the previous ten, in the time allowed them for exploration while this planet was still close enough to their own to permit a safe return in their ships, had not spotted the city. But the eleventh expedition had, an hour ago, with just thirteen hours left during which a return flight could be safely started. So far as was known, this was the only city on the planet—the planet without any life at all, save tiny mosses, for a million years or more.
