    I love "The Brain That Wouldn't Die" uncensored version has "Igor" smearing his "pulled out arm" socket against the wall. Great B movie.

    Last and First Men by Olaf Stapledon

    It's a slog, but worth reading. Many familiar sci-fi themes have been plundered from the story, along with Capeks The Starmaker. Sirius and Odd John are shorter and more "reader" friendly. Sirius ****

    Languages of Aliens and the Voynich Manuscript

    I just received a new book about/containing the Voynich manuscript after just seeing snippets about it in the past. Certainly to much work to be a hoax. Christmas present from my daughter.(y) I look forward to much more examination:coffee:

    Best Story by Category Poll?

    I think Best Story maybe any length, Novel, Short Fiction even a series of books, its about content that affected the respondant. If you haven't read enough then leave some blank. Maybe Favorite and Most Impact should be combined?

    Is there anyone here who is a fan of, or likes Keith Laumer's books

    As a boy I loved " A Plague of Demons" but unfortunately it doesn't hold up when you mature. Still Retief is a great toes in the sand read.
