  • Reception

    Reviewer Groff Conklin panned the collection as "another of those stones that should have been left unturned," saying that "The ideas no longer have any originality and the style is an almost perfect example of the early days of science fiction." Anthony Boucher agreed, declaring that "your opinion of Mr. Eshbach will remain higher if you fail to read [these] 9 unfortunate stories." P. Schuyler Miller described the stories as typical of their period, "pretty fair ideas, but amateurishly handled." Writing in The New York Times, Villiers Gerson found the stories to be standard 1930s fare, "one-dimensional and more concerned with the gimmick than with the characters."
