  The Space Beasts - No Air No...

  Clifford D. Simak

  When Captain Johnny Lodge and Karen Franklin venture deep into the forbidden Asteroid Belt, they expect danger—but not proof that the miners’ wild tales are true. A radiant blue flame, abandoned derelict ships, and creatures that defy every law of known biology soon surround them, transforming their mission into a fight for survival and understanding. 
  As the crew confronts living entities born of radiation and mutation, they uncover a mystery that challenges humanity’s assumptions about life itself. In a place where ancient pyramids glow in space and music can still monstrous beings, escape may depend not on firepower, but on courage, compassion, and the willingness to accept an entirely new form of existence. 
  Clifford D. Simak was one of science fiction’s most thoughtful and humane voices, blending cosmic wonder with deep emotional insight. His stories often explored the boundaries between humanity, alien life, and the moral choices that arise when those worlds collide. 
  Best known for classics such as City and Way Station, Simak’s work earned multiple Hugo and Nebula Awards and helped define a quieter, more philosophical strain of science fiction—one where empathy mattered as much as imagination.

  Morgue Ship

  Morgue Ship by RAY BRADBURY - This was Burnett's last trip. Three more shelves to fill with space-slain warriors—and he would be among the living again. 
  He heard the star-port grind open, and the movement of the metal claws groping into space, and then the star-port closed. 
  There was another dead man aboard the Constellation. 
  Sam Burnett shook his long head, trying to think clearly. Pallid and quiet, three bodies lay on the cold transparent tables around him; machines stirred, revolved, hummed. He didn't see them. He didn't see anything but a red haze over his mind. It blotted out the far wall of the laboratory where the shelves went up and down, numbered in scarlet, keeping the bodies of soldiers from all further harm. 
  Burnett didn't move. He stood there in his rumpled white surgical gown, staring at his fingers gloved in bone-white rubber; feeling all tight and wild inside himself. It went on for days. Moving the ship. Opening the star-port. Extending the retriever claw. Plucking some poor warrior's body out of the void. 
  He didn't like it any more. Ten years is too long to go back and forth from Earth to nowhere. You came out empty and you went back full-cargoed with a lot of warriors who didn't laugh or talk or smoke, who just lay on their shelves, all one hundred of them, waiting for a decent burial. 
  "Number ninety-eight." Coming matter of fact and slow, Rice's voice from the ceiling radio hit Burnett. 
  "Number ninety-eight," Burnett repeated. "Working on ninety-five, ninety-six and ninety-seven now. Blood-pumps, preservative, slight surgery." Off a million miles away his voice was talking. It sounded deep. It didn't belong to him anymore.

  British author Kenneth Grahame, during his brief career, managed to create two of the world's most beloved children's stories: the classic tale "The Wind in the Willows" and the novella "The Reluctant Dragon," each one a magnificent addition to any collection.  Here, these two famous stories are combined into one volume, presented in their original and unabridged format. First, Grahame's sprawling saga of life in the English countryside, "The Wind in the Willows," featuring the sensible and amiable Mole, the fiery and whip-smart Water Rat, the gruff and respectable Badger as well as the irrepressible and out-of-control Toad of Toad Hall, whose mad and impulsive behavior drives him to obsession, thievery, prison and escape! There are few more cherished children's books in the history of literature.  As an added bonus, however, we also include Grahame's story of friendship, love and compassion, the beautiful and elegiac novella "The Reluctant Dragon," wherein the main character - the Boy - discovers a friendly dragon living outside his small village. When the villagers learn of the dragon's existence, they recruit St. George himself to slay the monster, prompting the Boy to intervene and try to save his friend. A beautiful fable of love and friendship for children of all ages.
