Review title: A nifty collection of early s-f, fantasy and horror.
Product review: "Shot in the Dark" was published by Bantam Books in 1950, with cover art that made it appear to be more in the mystery genre than the then-marginal science fiction. The cover blurb reads "A different kind of mystery thrill," and I'm sure a lot of copies were sold to people expecting something more along the lines of Mickey Spillane or Raymond Chandler! In any case, it's a good little collection, with 23 selections by authors ranging from s-f icons like Asimov and Heinlein to old-timers like H.G. Wells and even Edgar Allan Poe. Overall a bit more "literary' than most s-f. If you ever run across a copy, it's worth picking up.
