Gwenlyn was going to marry the heir of the Pretender of Tralee and be Queen of Tralee some day, why, it didn't seem a bit likely. But once I knew about that precognition, I put in a little effort...." King Humphrey was thoughtful. "Things look good," said Morgan expansively. "My Talents are precognizing all over the place. They tell me that this planet's going to be a fine place to live. Quiet and peaceful, and serene.... Gwenlyn will be living on Tralee, most likely, and I don't want to be underfoot. I'll probably settle down here. Retire, you know." "Splendid," said the king, politely, his mind occupied with the prospect of a warless future. "And as for Gwenlyn and Bors," Morgan added, confidentially, "I'll tell you something. My Talents've been working on her future. I wouldn't tell her all of it. Some of it should be a surprise. But she and Bors are going to be what you call happy ever after! And that's Talents, Incorporated information! You can depend on it!" TWO MORE AVON S-F HITS YOU'RE SURE TO ENJOY LITTLE FUZZY _by H. Beam Piper F-118 40c_ Zarathustra belonged to the chartered Zarathustra Company as a Class-III uninhabited planet. They owned it lock, stock and barrel; they exploited it without interference from the Colonial Government. The Company was sitting pretty until Jack Holloway turned up with a family of Fuzzies and the claim that they were not just nice little animals, but human. If he was right and the Fuzzies were declared the 9th extrasolar sapient race, there went the Company, charter and all! LITTLE FUZZY is our candidate for the most delightful science-fiction book of the year. * * * * * THE STAR DWELLERS _by James Blish F-122 40c_ They were beautiful creatures, highly intelligent and playful. The inhabitants of Terra nicknamed them "Angels," yet they were awesome--the youngest were 4,000,000 years old and the oldest had been around since the birth of the universe. Space cadet Jack Loftus was almost overwhelmed when he had to assume the responsibility of negotiating a treaty with them--a treaty which could mean the life or death of earth and mankind. * * * * * Available at your local newsdealer.
