Many of his short stories are collected in ''He Do the Time Police in Different Voices'' (parodies) and ''Different Kinds of Darkness'' (more serious works). The latter includes his BLIT stories, set in a future transformed by the discovery of the Berryman Logical Imaging Technique, which creates computer-generated images that hack into the brain through the visual cortex and cause brain damage and even death in anybody who sees them. ("Different Kinds of Darkness" is itself a BLIT story.)
