Store of the Worlds: The Stories of Robert Sheckley

This is a pretty good collection of science fiction short stories from the 50’s and 60’s.  Sheckley is a master of twists at the end of a story.  Three stuck out for me.  The Native Problem is about a lone man on a planet. The invaders that come refuse to believe he’s an Earth man and the only inhabitant on the world.  He romances one of them. He deceives the invaders in a pretty funny way.  My favorite story was Watchbird about creatures being made to stop murders, only it backfires.  One example is that when cars stop they consider that murder.  Also, Double Indemnity (no resemblance to the Cain novel) is pretty clever.  I’m going to read a Sheckley novel sometime.  I’m hooked.
