Sinopsis

An original anthology celebrating Rod Serling's landmark television series featuring stories by Whitley Strieber, R. L. Stine, Laura Lippman, and others.When it first aired in 1959, The Twilight Zone was nothing less than groundbreaking television. Freed from much of the censors' strict oversight because of the show's classification as “science fiction,” the 156 filmed episodes explored powerful and moving human themes—love, hate, pride, jealousy, terror—in their own unique style. The show has since inspired two revivals, as well as fiction, comic books, and magazines, and even a pinball game and theme park rides. Just as important, it sparked the imaginations of countless writers, filmmakers, and fans around the world, and is considered a seminal show for broadening the horizons of television.This anthology is an all-new collection of stories written in the vein of the original television show. Edited and introduced by Carol Serling, it includes brand-new stories by science fiction and fantasy luminaries such as Whitley Strieber, Loren D. Estleman, Joe Lansdale, R. L. Stine, Timothy Zahn, and Peter S. Beagle, as well as writers from the original series, Earl Hamner and Harlan Ellison, all in honor of Rod's incredible vision.

    "Not the best of ways to introduce myself to you . . . A gentleman would have at least greeted you first . . . but I'm no gentleman." 
     
     
     
    He's the Bone Crusher. A man in a mask. His face is hidden alongside his intentions. He doesn't do things for free . . . or to be nice. 
     
     
     
    So just how did Nia end up stuck on a ship with him by her side? She'd wanted adventure, but Ka'Cit Urgmental was SO. MUCH. MORE. It's obvious he's only come to help her get back to the Sanctuary. That's all. 
     
     
     
    BUT . . . when he starts looking at her as if she's meant to be in his arms, in his bed . . . his, it soon becomes clear that things aren't that simple. 
     
     
     
    That mask he wears? His face isn't the only thing it hides. It's a metal shield veiling more than she could have ever imagined . . . 
     
     
     
    Whether what's underneath will break them apart or pull them together, that is another question. 
     
     
     
    Contains mature themes.

    Two paths, one fate. 
     
     
     
    Lucan now knows who—and what—Mackenzie truly is. She is Terra, the supernatural boogieman whose tales of carnage are used by parents to bring wayward children in line. 
     
     
     
    But she's captive, and the longer it takes to free her, the less choice he has—break the bond, or die. 
     
     
     
    Mackenzie—thrust back into the nightmare of her childhood—learns the awful truth. Her captors have no mercy . . . and now they know how to force her to do their bidding. Her Achilles' heel. And they'll use that knowledge against her in the worst possible way. But as her hopes for rescue dwindle, she must use every bit of her wits and skills just to survive. Because even in darkness, light can be found. 
     
     
     
    Mackenzie must hold out long enough for those she loves to free her, but every passing second brings her closer to crumbling under the weight of a past she can't outrun.

    Spawning Ground by Lester Del Rey - They weren't human. They were something more—and something less—they were, in short, humanity's hopes for survival! 
    The Starship Pandora creaked and groaned as her landing pads settled unevenly in the mucky surface of the ugly world outside. She seemed to be restless to end her fool's errand here, two hundred light years from the waiting hordes on Earth. Straining metal plates twanged and echoed through her hallways. 
    Captain Gwayne cursed and rolled over, reaching for his boots. He was a big, rawboned man, barely forty; but ten years of responsibility had pressed down his shoulders and put age-feigning hollows under his reddened eyes. The starlanes between Earth and her potential colonies were rough on the men who traveled them now. He shuffled toward the control room, grumbling at the heavy gravity. 
    Lieutenant Jane Corey looked up, nodding a blonde head at him as he moved toward the ever-waiting pot of murky coffee. "Morning, Bob. You need a shave." 
    "Yeah." He swallowed the hot coffee without tasting it, then ran a hand across the dark stubble on his chin. It could wait. "Anything new during the night?" 
    "About a dozen blobs held something like a convention a little ways north of us. They broke up about an hour ago and streaked off into the clouds." The blobs were a peculiarity of this planet about which nobody knew anything. They looked like overgrown fireballs, but seemed to have an almost sentient curiosity about anything moving on the ground. "And our two cadets sneaked out again. Barker followed them, but lost them in the murk. I've kept a signal going to guide them back."

    With her name cleared and an impressive rep building around her, Mia thought things would get easier. No such luck. She can't even go shopping at her favorite used starship lot without assassins emerging from the woodwork. 
     
     
     
    Dropping bodies to deal with her problems has never been an issue for Mia before. 
     
     
     
    Her father's legacy and her skills made sure she would never be caught unawares, but taking her enemies out is a short-term solution at best. At worst, it could unravel all her progress. So, what's a freshly exonerated fugitive going to do? Head right into trouble again, of course. 
     
     
     
    This time, Mia's aiming higher because that's where the shots are coming from. 
     
     
     
    With a rogue's gallery of allies, enemies, and oddities all around, she must figure out who her enemies are before they find her first. 
     
     
     
    Find them she will, and once she has what she needs? The forecast shows heavy showers of starfighter violence approaching the unlucky denizens who thought they could take Mia out from the sidelines. 
     
     
     
    Will Mia solidify her reputation as someone who isn't to be messed with in yet more white-knuckle space battles? Or will the dangers of dealing in dark corridor intrigue prove to be her undoing?
