Straight out of the pulps, Arthur C. Clarke’s science-fiction/horror short story published by Thrilling Wonder Stories in 1950, tells the story of a man on a far off planet looking for the port station in the dead of night. His tractor broke down and his flash light went out; all he can do now is feel for the road under his feet and try not to think of the eerie stories he’s been told of monsters.

This seems like a very interesting book. I feel that I can relate to this story. When I do something in particular, everything goes wrong. I may have to look into it.
