Ambulance Ship
0-345-28513-1
Ambulance Ship is a 1979 science fiction short story collection by Northern Irish author James White, part of his Sector General series.[1]
Stories
- "Contagion" – An ancient sleeper ship is found whose last occupants died only months before. The rescue ship and ambulance crews come down with a mysterious illness.
- "Quarantine" – The sole survivor from a spacewreck is brought back to the hospital, and stuns everyone by downing half the surgical team.
- "Recovery" – A ship is found with absolutely no visible markings. A torture corridor inside beats on whatever passes, including a violent non-sentient and a telepathic sentient who communicates with the ambulance staff about the Blind Ones' need.
The 1980 Corgi edition has "Spacebird" as the first story.
