My all time favourite author, anything of Ray Bradbury's is worth investing your time. His earlier short tales rank among his best work, stories such as 'Skeleton,' 'The Jar' and 'The Small Assassin' are simply unforgettable. His first pro-sale story, 'The Lake,' is one of the few works of fiction to make me cry. In short: If it has Ray Bradbury's name on it, you should probably read it.
