Title: Soiling Bester's memory
Product review: Vintage did an amazing job reprinting The Stars My Destination and The Demolished Man, and giving us the amazing short story collection Virtual Unrealities and Bester's unfinished materwork Psychoshop (finished by the great Roger Zelazny).Now some too-hip-to-live imprint of Simon & Schuster with the dopey name of "iBooks" has decided to cash in on Vintage's classy endeavor by foisting Bester's later, lesser work on an unsuspecting buying public. Do yourself a favor and stick with Bester's best, which Vintage has already done. Publishing this crap just soils Bester's memory -- he should be remembered for his older work, and let his newer work die.
