| From the back cover of the Fontana edition, 6th printing:
'Highway battery... He chopped at my head with the loaded butt of his gun. I went out, all the way. After a while the darkness where I lay was invaded by dreams. Huge turning wheels resolved themselves into a diesel locomotive. I was lying limp across the tracks and the train was coming. It honked its horn at me. It wasn't a train sound, though, and I wasn't lying on a track, and it was no dream. I sat up on the middle of the highway. A truck was bearing down on me, its brakes shrieking. But it wasn't going to be able to stop in time...' |
