Three Short Sci-Fi Stories By Gordon R. Dickson
Shield From The Dead. No conceivable force could penetrate Terri's shield. Yet he was defenseless.
The Stranger. If the alien space craft was not a rocket ship, what was it? And an even bigger question: should they investigate—or run for their lives!
Time Grabber. It seemed to be logical research, switching sixteen Romans from the 1st Century to the 27th—for study.... But who was going to take their place?
