A collection of 9 sci-fi short stories dealing with the 7 deadly sins, by some of the greats of the genre. I remember this one fondly, as it was one of the books my dad kept on his bathroom reading shelf.
I would heartily recommend these two stories.more They are all centered in a world where energy efficiency and robotic manufacturing have given the world a glut of merchandise to consume. The ones I liked the best were the Midas Plague and the man who ate the world.īoth by Pohl, these along with another would one day be combined to make a novel. Included is Sail 25, Peeping Tom, The invisible man murder case, Galley Slave, Divine Madness, The Midas Plague, The man who ate the world, Margin or profit, and The hook, the eye and the whip. The crux of the anthology is each story is a reflection of the deadly sins, with Gluttony having two stories since it is a glutton. I am used to reading an anthology and having at least story leave me with an "Oh so that happened, what is next" feeling. None of the stories sucked, which for me is a great thing. Hurray, I love old sci-fi anthologies and it never fails when i read one I will find at least one or two of the stories that I have read elsewhere. Included is Sail 25, Peeping Tom Anthology.
