The Season To Be wary is unique in that it is one of the first examples of Rod Serling publishing stories he created first in narrative form. This collection of three novellas provides poignant insights into the human condition with all its' moral and ethical dilemmas. Of the three, Escape Route and Eyes were included in the pilot for The Night Gallery, with the latter starring Joan Crawford and directed by new comer, Steven Spielberg. Darkly disturbing, these stories remain relevant today.

A mother struggles to reconnect with her long-lost daughter in a picturesque Maine beach town in this novel by the author of Barefoot in the Sand. Every year on March 26, Verity Peterson visits Ogunquit Beach, where she puts a handwritten message into a bottle and launches it into the waves. It’s a ritual of remembrance for the daughter she hasn’t seen in sixteen years—not since her baby’s father, Alan, took two-month-old Gemma and disappeared. Verity keeps searching and hoping, sustained by the thought that someday she might get to be a mother to her own child. And finally, one phone call may change everything . . . Verity learns that Alan is now in jail on abduction charges—and Marni Armstrong, born Gemma Peterson-Burns, is coming to live with Verity in Yorktide, Maine. But this isn’t the joyful reunion Verity imagined. Gemma has been raised to believe Verity was an unfit mother who left Alan no choice but to take her out of harm’s way. Over the course of one summer, Verity tries to reach a tough, wary young woman who’s more stranger than daughter. And Gemma must reexamine everything she thought about her parents—and decide whether to trust in a relationship that, though delicate as a seashell on the surface, could prove to be just as beautiful and resilient.
The best-selling story of Jason, Pro, and Rachel continues where "End of Summer" left off. 'The Suck' - the virus that claimed 97% percent of humanity - is gone. The arrival of other survivors with a different take on the future may be as dangerous as the virus itself. In the middle, with their hands on the scales, is a group of former soldiers and civilians who survived the virus in Antarctica. They've arrived to find a dead world, with no rules. "Reap What You Sow" is the second novel in the Seasons of Man series from the author of "A Bright Shore". The author is a former CIA Operations Officer who has decided his life-long love of writing is more fun than real work.
The Night Gallery is one of three books written by Rod Serling based on stories he created for the 1970 television series by the same name. Similar to his Stories From The Twilight Zone books, he novelized six of the show's scripts for this volume, including They're Tearing Down Tim Riley's Bar, which was nominated for an Emmy award. Although he didn't have the creative control he had with The Twilight Zone stories, these are every bit as poignant.
Once again, the spine tingling sensibility of America's favorite fantasy tv show electrifies a collection of tales guaranteed to leave readers with that strange feeling of having been to a distant, but familiar place, a place like our world, but strangely, subtly different. Edited by Rod Serling's wife Carol Serling, this collection is the newest in a series begun with "The Twilight Zone: The Original Stories--" a series of story anthologies dedicated to capturing the unique Zone atmosphere on the printed page, which in many cases is where it began. "Return to the Twilight Zone" includes 19 stories by a wide range of today's best mystery, sci-fi and fantasy authors. Carol Serling has called on many of today's hottest writers--including Pamela Sargent, Robert Weinberg, Barry Longyear, Charles Grant, and Jack Dann--to create the kind of imagination-grabbing stories with that unique twist which is the special trademark of "The Twilight Zone." Here, for your careful consideration, are unforgettable new excursions into that mysterious dimension beyond our own.
