Speculations (book)
Speculations is an anthology of 17 short science fiction stories published by Houghton Mifflin in 1982. It was edited by Isaac Asimov and Alice Laurance. Instead of crediting the authors in the usual manner, it encouraged readers to guess who wrote which story, and provided a code which could be broken to give the answers.

gollark: If it comes to it I *think* I can reflash it from the "MTK scatter tool" but this would require me to find a windows computer somewhere and such.
gollark: Or fastboot.
gollark: I can get *recovery mode*, but only a somewhat broken recovery mode which lets me run shell commands somehow but which does not seem to want to actually boot into system mode, *somehow*.
