I am looking for a sci fi book of short stories categorized by love, horror, sci-fi etc. I read a book of sci fi short stories a long time ago and I completely forgot the title and author and now I want to read it again. One of the stories was about this couple who died and went to hell, which is one endless freeway. They keep driving on and on running from the evil semi truck and eventually sacrifice themselves to save a child from the semi.

Afterwards, they finally find an exitanother story was about this old couple that lived in a fancy neighborhood, and the man was the leader of the homeowners association. A strange guy moves to the neighborhood and violates the rules by painting a bunch of realistic trees on his house. They look so realistic that one cant tell the difference between them and the real treesa third story was about this wonderful teacher/professor who was tricked into signing this contract which gave his style of teaching to some people.

So, he couldnt teach anymore and lived on the streets talking to little children to illegally "teach" them Asked by newuser66363988 21 months ago Similar questions: sci fi book short stories categorized love horror sci fi Arts > Books.

10 Sci-Fi Books That Even Non-Geeks Would Love The question of which science fiction books are the best ever is a pointless one for most people, since many of the "greatest science fiction novels" are books that no one but science fiction fans will read. A better question to ask might be: What are the best science fiction books that you don't have to be a hard-core science fiction fan to enjoy? We scanned our library and came up with these 10 (well, 12) books that not only provide great SF fun, but also are approachable enough for the casual reader.

Some old, some new - but all good reads. Dune by Frank HerbertDavid Lynch made this book into a 1984 film that was so incomprehensible that the actual novel - 600 pages on the future of religion, politics, desert ecology, and drug trafficking - look positively streamlined in comparison. When the book came out in the mid 1960s its multiple story threads were daunting.(Photo: Robert E.

Nylund, via Wikipedia)But (ironically) thanks to shows like The X-Files and even The West Wing, in which several things are happening all at once, people got used to following intersecting story lines. The result is that Herbert's magnum opus now comes across more like an epic historical novel that happens to be set in the future, not the past. Herbert wrote several Dune sequels of varying quality.

More recently, Herbert's son Brian teamed up with SF author Kevin J. Anderson to write a trio of prequels that Uncle John doesn't think are on par with the rest. Stick with the original.

(Photo: David Brin)This plot line is the skeleton on which author and real-life physicist Brin hangs some fascinating episodic story lines that involve problems the world faces today (global warming, privacy, energy crunches), carried out to their possible outcomes 50 years from now. Originally published in 1991, Earth has already pegged a couple of items correctly (such as a version of the World Wide Web and the idea of futzing with old movies using new computer graphics).

Plus, scientists have begun trying to generate tiny little black holes in labs. So imagine what else Brin might (eventually) be right about.

That's the setup of Ender's Game; the meat of the story comes from the struggle of one of these extraordinary children (named Ender) to keep a grip on his humanity even as he's being turned into the perfect killing machine.

If I have to bet I say Night Shift by Stephen King Night Shift is the first collection of short stories by Stephen King, first published in 1978. Many of King's most famous short stories were included in this collection. DetailsThe book was published on the heels of The Shining (1977 Doubleday) and was King's fifth published book (including Rage, which was published under the pseudonym of Richard Bachman). A vast majority of the stories had appeared in various issues of Cavalier Magazine from 1970-1975; others were originally published in Penthouse, Cosmopolitan, Gallery, Ubris, and Maine Magazine.

The stories "Jerusalem's Lot", "Quitters Inc. ", "The Last Rung on the Ladder", and "The Woman in the Room" appeared for the first time in this collection. Edit Foreword and Introduction"I am looking for a sci fi book of short stories categorized by love, horror, sci-fi etc. "Topics author, books, book, fiction, authors, sci-fiNight Shift is the first book for which King wrote a foreword.

This foreword, in which the writer humbly introduces himself, sets up his characteristic "fire-side storyteller" tone. He begins the foreword directly addressing the reader; "Let's talk, you and I. Let's talk about fear.

" This friendly, conversational tone, will become a hallmark of Stephen King's writing style - especially his non-fiction writing. He closes the foreword on a note that would become familiar to his 'Constant Readers' (a term of endearment that King reserves for his fans). The introduction was written by one of King's favorite authors, John D.

MacDonald. Sources: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Night_Shift_%28book%29 .

Two books I can't remember the titles to: one is a sci-fi: colonists are in a spacehip, but they don't know they are.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
