Judgment Night

This is my first attempt at reading C. L. Moore and wow, am I impressed! In my opinion, she deserves to be considered among the very elite of golden-age sci-fi authors. This collection of five novellas explores some absolutely brilliant concepts. The title novella, 'Judgment Night', was quite good but was my least favorite of the bunch. Highlights for me were 'The Code', 'Promised Land' and 'Heir Apparent'. All very intelligent probes into some incredibly deep subjects. All these stories, written between 1943 and 1950, stand the test of time much better than many other works from the same era.

Highly recommended.
