Even though I've read most of these short stories across the years, it's an utter no-brainer to pick up these stories and enjoy them again.
It's Harlan Ellison, ya'll. Always acerbic, a force for energetic good, and yet, litigious as hell -- and above all, a loud-mouth, brilliant storyteller.
Instead of commenting on every single story here, I will just mention my now-favorites. A few will slip and slide, but some will always remain.
Repent, Harlequin, said the Ticktock Man -- the ultimate SF that thumbs its nose at time-punchers, is sad and it makes me angry and while I APPRECIATE the damn point, I deal with people who can't not be late for their very lives -- so I guess I have to become the Ticktocck Man. GGahaaaaahhhhhhh. Anyway.
I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream -- Alas, I've read this 5 times, and so, I decided to use ChatGPT to give me it's REAL opinion on AM, and oh, my, it's a slippery one.
Deathbird -- I always thought of this as a little philosophical stroll down good/evil redemption lane, but HOW it was written was pretty awesome. A little cosmic horror and schoolwork together never hurts.
Chatting with Anubis -- Short, sharp afterlife. Secrets kill. :)
The Whimper of Whipped Dogs --
