The most comprehensive single-volume collection of Evelyn E. Smith's science fiction and fantasy, gathering twenty-seven stories across more than five hundred pages of mid-century speculative fiction.
Spanning alien encounters, social satire, planetary adventure, and sharply observed human comedy, this Super Pack presents the breadth of Smith's contribution to Golden Age and post-Golden Age science fiction. Her fiction blends conceptual clarity with wit, frequently turning speculative premises into examinations of culture, power, gender, and assumption. Whether exploring dual-sunned worlds in Two Suns of Morcali, extraterrestrial diplomacy in The Lady from Aldebaran, or quietly subversive domestic absurdities in The Laminated Woman, Smith demonstrates a voice both intelligent and unmistakably her own.
Collected here are twenty-seven stories, including The Most Sentimental Man, My Fair Planet, The People Upstairs, The Princess and the Physicist, Sentry of the Sky, and many others. Taken together, they reveal a writer who expanded the tonal range of mid-century science fiction beyond spectacle into social nuance and ironic insight. This Positronic Super Pack restores and preserves her work in a substantial, carefully assembled volume for contemporary readers.
