Maturity (1979)
by Theodore Sturgeon
Book Notes
- Created for Minicon 15 where Sturgeon was the Guest of Honor. Also includes illustrations by James Odbert, 1 page of Editors' Notes by Scott Imes and Stuart W. Wells III, a 2-page introduction by Sturgeon, and an excellent Sturgeon bibliography by Dennis Lien and Jayne Sturgeon. According to the Editors' Notes, Sturgeon started to rewrite "Maturity" for this collection but preferred the older version. The only change is the fixing of a persistent typo: "17 kesteroids" was corrected to "17 ketosteroids".
