Synopsis

Often written overnight for a penny a word and tailored to a title and cover art created months in advance, the fantasies herein were written in the first year and a half of Harlan Ellison’s career, when he churned out fiction at a remarkable rate, to learn his craft and pay the rent. From a detective stumbling upon an impossible murder to an environmental apocalypse that bathes the world in fire, these are tales brimming with invention, prefiguring later obsessions, and dashing along at a breakneck pace. This is not the nihilistic Ellison of “‘Repent, Harlequin!’ Said the Ticktockman” or the nostalgic Ellison of “Jeffty Is Five”; this is the embryonic author, trying to type at the speed of an imaginative engine just coming to life. Previously collected in the out-of-print limited editions, COFFIN NAILS and PEBBLES FROM THE MOUNTAIN, these rare stories were the last published-but-uncollected tales in the Ellison œuvre, finally available in the first of three trade editions.
