first time anywhere, TROUBLEMAKERS presents a collection of Ellison's
classic stories - chosen by the author - that will introduce new readers

mind.' Includes the award-winning stories 'Repent, Harlequin! Said the
Ticktockman' and 'Deeper Than the Darkness'. Harlan Ellison is a
multiple Hugo and Nebula Award winning writer and editor. He wrote the
script for the hugely popular Star Trek episode, The City on the Edge of
Forever, the Nebula Award-winning novella, A Boy and his Dog, and many
