The five Mercury paperback series normally contained "cut" or "abridged" versions of popular novels, including several of EQ's. This being the only collection to feature "new" material -- even if the works were "new" only in a technical sense. Since the radio scripts were written by Dannay and Lee, this paperback collection is of interest to EQ collectors. "The Double Triangle" is by no means a great Queen story but since it combines many of the earlier Queen-characteristics it proves a source of fascination in itself. Like all of the Mercury editions, though, it is difficult to find.
