The Gryb

3.3/5 ( ratings)

A scale armored, blood-sucker gryb glinted off the small and gem-like disk of sun, which rose higher and higher from the fantastic horizon of europa, blinding Thomas. The man in front was desperately hard to see against the relentless brilliance, and it seemed as if he was deliberately holding himself in the sun's glare to distract thomas's wearying mind and dull his strength.
Had the guide uncovered the real reason for his mission to this alien world? Thomas's mind suddenly ticked coldly with a sense of something repeated; for he knew death from before, during those bold, tremulous years when he had roamed the farthest planets.
Originally published as "The Proxy Intelligence and other Mind Benders" in 1971. Kent Johnson writes that the title story of the original collection from 1971 was dropped from later editions, and replaced by Humans, Go Home. The Gryb contains the following stories:
