*Science Fiction, Fantasy & Horror: Four quality books added this week. Intangibles Inc is a collection of five novellas by Brian Aldiss; Stand On Zanzibar is a lengthy novel of the effects of over-population by John Brunner; Sir Arthur Conan Doyle is represented by his other famous creation in The Adventures Of Professor Challenger, three stories of science fiction and fantasy featuring the early 20th Century adventurer; Philip K Dick’s inimitable style is apparent in Galactic Pot-Healer, an entertaining mix of fantasy, sci-fi, philosophy and mythology, with corrosive satire and told with a dead-pan humour.
