Een boek dat is gelezen, maar zich in goede staat bevindt. De kaft is zeer minimaal beschadigd (er zijn bijvoorbeeld slijtplekken), maar er zijn geen deukjes of scheuren. De harde kaft heeft mogelijk geen stofomslag meer. De boekband vertoont minimale slijtage. De meeste bladzijden zijn onbeschadigd. Er zijn weinig vouwen en scheuren en er is vrijwel geen tekst met potlood onderstreept of met een accentueerstift gemarkeerd. Er is niet in de kantlijn geschreven. Er ontbreken geen bladzijden.

Synopsis
When the first contact between humans and aliens from another planethappens, will they say, "Take me to your leader," or is"Surrender, puny primitive bipeds" more likely? Or maybe,"Hello there, I'm selling the latest edition of the GalacticEncyclopedia, and no planet should be without a set," might be the firstwords from the alien visitor., STORIES OF ALIEN CONTACT GONE WRONG. Will it be, Greeting, fellow Sentients or, Nice Planet--we'll take it"? These stories from SF greats answer the question, Are we alone in the universe? with a resounding, No, but we wish we were! When the first contact between humans and aliens from another planet happens, will they say, "Take me to your leader," or is "Surrender, puny primitive bipeds" more likely? Or maybe, "Hello there, I'm selling the latest edition of the Galactic Encyclopedia , and no planet should be without a set," might be the first words from the alien visitor. Ever since H.G. Wells wrote The War of the Worlds , science fiction writers have speculated on what the first contact might be like. From attacking invaders to wise and benevolent visitors who are ready to solve all our problems for us, from horror stories to hilarious satire, with all the stops in between, including plenty of tales in which the aliens are the ones who wish they'd stayed at home and never come across Earth and its inhabitants. With stories by such science fiction masters as Poul Anderson, David Drake, William Tenn, Sarah A. Hoyt, Tony Daniel, and more, this is a collection filled with chills, thrills, and laughter, all reporting on what happens when First Contact turns into Worst Contact . Praise for anthologies edited by Hank Davis: A Cosmic Christmas 2 You: "This creative and sprightly Christmas science fiction anthology spins in some surprising directions . . . A satisfying read for cold winter evenings, this anthology is a great stocking stuffer for SF fans."-- Publishers Weekly In Space No One Can Hear You Scream: "From Arthur C. Clarke's interplanetary riff on the lonely night's walk (A Walk in the Dark) to George R.R. Martin's award-winning classic of irresponsible alien pet ownership (Sandkings), the 13 tales in this collection blend sf with horror to demonstrate the resiliency of both genres. VERDICT: Including selections by Clark Ashton Smith, Robert Sheckley, Elizabeth Bear, Sarah Monette, and other stars, this seasonal collection offers strong tales by the genre's best storytellers." -- Library Journal, STORIES OF ALIEN CONTACT GONE WRONG.
