Lerner "Creative Destruction" (InterstellarNet series) © Analog, Mar 2001 ---------------------------------------------- Derwin Lesser "Fatal Glance" © Wonder Stories, Feb 1935 It has been said that anything imaginable by the human mind is possible. We can imagine only things and combinations of things that we have known and therefore the most fantastic conception is not in the least bit "alien" in its essence. What's more, a thing entirely outside of our realm of experience and existence may even destroy our mind as it enters it. This story takes a "glimpse of an utterly alien world" and turns it into a fatal experience for human observers. There is an interesting side-thought to this: I think I agree with C. S. Lewis, when he says that if we can imagine something, then it's bound to exist somewhere or sometime. The fact that we are created to hope and dream for certain things makes these same things a definite possibility. review: 05-Aug-06 (read in 2005) ---------------------------------------------- David D.

The constellations are to him like spores, and he ponders his role in life and death whilst speaking to the injectioneer..." - via ---------------------------------------------- Richard O.
