Miracle In Three Dimensions and Other Stories contains nine rare tales by C.L. Moore, one of the most popular and significant writers of fantastic literature for the pulp magazines of the early 20th century. The tales here span the gamut from science fiction to mythological fantasy - from technological horror to unearthly romance - and back again, to the everyday reality of twentieth century America and the special horrors people can inflict upon each other. Nine stories, each a unique vision beyond ordinary imagination - a soldier of fortune is recruited to assassinate the god of an alien world in The Bright Illusion; an ancient intelligent computer on a hidden island contemplates perfection, until a shipwrecked sailor brings chaos and confusion in Greater Glories, (published here for the first time since 1935); a world-weary traveler makes a blind leap into adventure, and finds that true love is more complicated than it seems in Tryst In Time; a man gains the full awareness of the ultimate consequences of his actions in Greater Than Gods; a new kind of motion picture has the power to kill in the title story, Miracle In Three Dimensions; the legend of Eden is given a new twist in Fruit Of Knowledge; betrayal and revolution come to a strange alternate-universe Venus in There Shall Be Darkness; an alien collector has his eyes on a beautiful human female to add to his favorite display case in Doorway Into Time; and a woman finds herself driven to suicide in here lies..., a crime story set in contemporary California, unseen since its first publication more than 50 years ago.
