Story
In a post-apocalyptic future, 15-year-old Vic wanders the wasteland with Blood, his genetically-altered telepathic dog, in the Hugo Award-nominated and Nebula Award-winning novella, A Boy and His Dog - the basis of the cult classic film. An intergalactic conspiracy infects the minds of the most powerful politicians in the Republican Party - and only one jolly old elf can save them in “Santa Claus vs. S.P.I.D.E.R.” And in the Hugo Award-winning title story, disparate threads of violence, conflict, and conversation weave an intricate tapestry across worlds and times.

"Holocaust" by Charles Willard Diffin.
"Lord of Space" by Victor Rousseau
"The Meteor Girl" by Jack Williamson
"Second Variety" by Philip K Dick
Of these "Second Variety is by far the best. It's an intense and creepy tale of war, paranoia, and poorly-programmed robots. "The Meteor Girl" is the second best, a charming story of super-science, time paradoxes, and rescue on the high seas.
"Holocaust" is more interesting for its historical context than its plot. It was written in 1931 involves an invasion of the USA by the USSR, which is aided by a misguided mad scientist. It's a great window into the political mindset of 1930s America.
"Lord of Space" is a fairly unremarkable space adventure story. It's definitely the weakest story of the lot.
