Run For The Stars by Harlan Ellison
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
An enjoyable Harlan Ellison story, made more enjoyable by the author himself narrating and commenting at the end of the story. The story is about a lower class addict on a doomed planet being forced into a life or death situation because he is most likely to act like a rat and try to escape. What's funny is that Ellison nails the voice of this bottom-dweller and delivers a theater-worthy performance. A very unlikely plot but made fun by the way Ellison voices the thoughts of the "little man".
