It's about time Harlan was universally recognized as one of the great writers in the English language. It seems like Ellison has explored every plot, concept, idea, or scenario that exists -- and every screenwriter, SS writer, and novelist in science/speculative/avant garde fiction who came after Harlan owes him -- whether they know it or not. If it's a great idea that's profound, funny, sardonic... more

Great stories...too bad you start at 5% in, no title page, no table of contents...and missing the beginning of "I Have No Mouth." Will be looking for another version to download and glad that this one only cost me a buck... more

| 4. Dangerous Visions |

By: Harlan Ellison
Publisher: e-reads.com
May 19, 2009
Good Lord, it's been forty years or more since "Dangerous Visions" hit the stores. Hardly seems possible, especially for a book that was specifically designed to bring science fiction current with the modern world.
According to Harlan Ellison, who edited this volume and its companion piece, "Again, Dangerous Visions", speculative fiction in 1968 had a problem with synchronization. Many... more

Harlan Ellison is a paradox for me. I like his writing... when he's not writing science fiction. I don't really care for his style in fiction. But I loved his TV review books, "The Glass Teat" and "The Other Glass Teat". (These titles are unfortunately long out of print, but used copies are out there.) I also had the pleasure of seeing Ellison at a book signing, and he is absolutely hilarious in person... more

May 25, 2009
If you appreciate excellent writing, weird tales, thought-provoking scenarios, and an acute eye for the entertaining idea, READ HARLAN ELLISON. His voice is recognizable immediately. A sign of pure skill and immense talent. His words tumble out with edge and intelligence. His writing is powerful because he writes with unapologetic authority and an odd wit. Harlan is truly a pleasure to read. ... more

| 7. The Essential Ellison: A 35 Year Retrospective |
|
By: Harlan Ellison
Publisher: Morpheus Intl
1991-11
He's been raging for years. Star trek and outer limits episodes, the short story he claims (with much vigor.) was the basis for the terminator.
He is a man from a bygone age who writes with a passion that is not found today. Some of the best short stories to be found (I have no mouth and I must scream)flow from his pen. A man worthy of a retrospective.

August 04, 2009
I first read _Ellison Wonderland_ (1962) when I was in high school and was sick abed with the flu. I had never heard of Harlan Ellison before, but the collection made an impression on me. I didn't like all of the stories equally well, and none of them struck me as clear classics. But they freqently displayed a kind of manic inventiveness, and occasionally they packed an emotional punch. Most of the... more

Buy everything that Harlan Ellison has ever wrote. He is the greatest short story writer of the 20th Century and the 21st century, a true American treasure, and "I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream" is utterly amazing, shocking, hopeful, and makes a reader feel absolutely, fully human. The world is a better place for this book, and people are better for having read Ellison.
