Our take on the Failsafe and Other Stories

Failsafe and Other Stories is a 2019 paperback collection of science fiction and fantasy short stories. It is a niche title with limited retail distribution, so new copies are scarce. The best new price is $13.99 at Walmart as of November 7, 2026, and it is the only store listing a new copy. Buyers who want it should not expect a wide price spread or frequent discounts.

Questions and answers

Is Failsafe and Other Stories worth buying?
If you like short science fiction and fantasy, it is a low-cost way to try an unfamiliar collection. With only one new listing, check a used copy first if price matters.
Is it a novel or a short story collection?
It is a collection of short stories, not a single continuous novel. Each story stands on its own.
What format is it available in?
The listed edition is a paperback in English, released in 2019. No other formats are confirmed.
Why is there only one new price?
It is a niche title with limited distribution, so few stores stock it new. That also means the $13.99 price at Walmart has no competing new offers to beat it.
When is it cheapest?
With a single new listing, the price is unlikely to move much. Used copies are the likeliest way to pay less.
Who is it for?
Readers who enjoy short sci-fi and fantasy and do not mind an unfamiliar author. It is less suited to readers who want a long, connected narrative.
Where is the Failsafe and Other Stories cheapest?
At Walmart, for $13.99, as of our latest check.
