This is science-fiction

A tight plot in a short story woven like a tapestry; every sentence a bright thread. The imagery is what they call evocative. no I won't start to describe the plot because I would diminish it .Can't pretend I understood it all. if you want bubble gum fiction go someplace else. I like to think I got the point - wow.

Any writer that can write like Fritz Leiber deserves the kind of notoriety that Shakespeare gets. New writers or most Old Pros that think they know how to write should study this one.
