Whenever I hunt for sci-fi pulp and discover a new batch of treasures created by the masters of this lost genre, I am excited and saddened.
I’m excited because I know that I am in store for fantastical trips to other worlds and will be treated to original concepts from the prolific writers who spanned the salad days of pulp fiction from the 1930s to the late 1960s.
But I’m saddened because so many young people of today will never know the joy of reading these pulp masterpieces at a kitchen table in a silent room, without the nerve-racking distractions of the 21st century.
Still, the stories and novelette complied in this third volume of hardcore sci-fi scan the breadth and width of this lost art. Some of the stories are short; some are long. Some are pure adventure; while others like “Monkey on His Back,” show the genius and ability of these pulp visionaries to predict our present state of world terrorism.
Every one of these lost stories in this 308-page, finely illustrated compilation, published exclusively for Kindle, delighted me, and I hope they will delight you too.
More to come soon.
