The lead story "In a Cellar" by Sanderson; a stylishly illustrated tale of a savage King who is banished and chained in a cellar of his castle for his cruel and deadly deeds...which somehow sows the seeds of democracy? The second story by Boates, "The Sensuous Censor," is a two-page melodrama about a government-employed censor who is driven mad by his exposure to underground-style comic books. Later in the book, McKie gives us an uncredited story, "Gardeners of the Universe," in which apparently alien space ships hover around the United Nations building in New York City, an ominous threat that panics the public. It turns out that this is not the first time the ships have been to Earth, since their inhabitants were responsible for the planet's origin...but the fruits of their labor turn out rather differently than they anticipated.
