 DOUBLE TROUBLE
Harlan Ellison (whom The New Yorker calls тАЬa nonstop controversialist who comes on like an angry
Woody AllenтАЭ) is a very special kind of writer. If this is your first encounter with him, defend yourself
from attacks on your world-view. Because he is the only one who can write Harlan Ellison Stories. His
friends, outstanding fantasists like the legendary Theodore Sturgeon, Hugo/Nebula winner Roger Zelazny,
A.E. Van Vogt (whose fame in France rivals that of SteinbeckтАЩs), тАЬPsychoтАЭ author Robert Bloch, Edgar-
winning novelist Henry Slesar and the swashbuckling writer/adventurer Robert Sheckley, are also special.
What they do, no one else can do. But can they work together on the same story? What happens when
Ellison mixes with the antic Avram Davidson? What comes out when talents as clearly different as Ellison
and Van Vogt write together? How do you categorize the hybrid produced by the coolly scientific Ben
Bova and the irrationally visceral Ellison (in a story whose plagiarization by ABCTV and Paramount
Studios won a Federal District Court judgment for the authors in the amount of $337,000)? And how well
do two dominating personalities such as SilverbergтАЩs and EllisonтАЩs get along in the same storyline? This
book will tell you!
