The stories in this third collection from a master of speculative fiction are at once playful and dark, but each is wonderfully told.
Contents include
The Music of the Yellow Brass A Classic Affair The New People Buck Fever The Magic Man Father, Dear Father Perchance to Dream Song for a Lady The Trigger The Guests of Chance (with Chad Oliver) The Love-Master A Death in the Country The Neighbors The Howling Man Night RideCharles Beaumont (1929–1967) was a prolific American writer of speculative fiction, including the signature collection Night Ride, and Other Journeys, also available from Blackstone and Skyboat.

Paul Boehmer attended his first Shakespearean play while in high school; he knew then that he was destined to become the classically trained actor he is today. Graduating with a master's degree, Paul was cast as Hamlet by the very stage actor who inspired his career path. A nod from the Universe he'd chosen aright! Paul has worked on Broadway and extensively in regional theater. Coinciding with another of his passions, sci-fi, Paul has been cast in various roles in many episodes of Star Trek. Paul's love of literature and learning led him by nature to his work as a narrator for audiobooks, his latest endeavour. Paul is married to the love of his life, Offir, and they live in Los Angeles with their two midnight-rambling tomcats, Dread and David.
