Steel

A collection of short stories from the genre fiction Grand Master and New York Times–bestselling author of I Am Legend.

The basis for the science fiction film Real Steel starring Hugh Jackman, Richard Matheson's “Steel” was previously filmed as a powerful episode of the original Twilight Zone television series—and is just one of over a dozen unforgettable tales in this outstanding collection, which includes two new stories that have never appeared in any of the multi-award-winning author's previous collections. Also featured is a bizarre satirical fantasy, “The Splendid Source,” that was turned into an episode of Family Guy.

A Science Fiction Hall of Fame inductee, and the winner of the World Fantasy and Bram Stoker awards for Lifetime Achievement, Matheson's Steel: And Other Stories demonstrates once again the full range of his legendary imagination.
