Rediscovery: Science Fiction by Women (1958 to 1963) : Yesterday's luminaries introduced by today's rising stars

The Silver Age of Science Fiction saw a wealth of compelling speculative tales -- and women authors wrote some of the best of the best. Yet the stories of this era, especially those by women, have been largely unreprinted, unrepresented, and unremembered.

Female authors wrote stories about coming of age...cautionary tales...stories set beyond our universe...Youll find these themes and more in this anthology. I hope that as you read their stories you dont try to feminine versus masculine elements. What you are about to read is really good science fiction, plain and simple.
