I was born too late to enjoy the heyday of Sci-Fi Pulp magazines, but that didn’t keep me from seeking them out and bathing my entire being in the fine stuff that many of today’s greatest sci-fi movies are still made of.
I hunted carefully for this first group of lost vintage stories and illustrations that fill this 83-page Kindle-exclusive compilation.
I guarantee that you will find they are representative of the finest Sci-Fi pulp the world has seen. Unfortunately, these speculative-fiction masterpieces that span 1916 to the early 1960s have been lost by the public at large – a great pity this modest volume is trying to rectify.
While the authors of these great pulp works – with the exception of Jack London – are not and will never be household words, they were individuals that had truly mastered the art of not just telling a good story, but also taking us into an unknown but believable future.
One note about London’s Sci-fi piece called “The Red One.” When I first read it, it was written in 1916, I was blown away by how far ahead London was of his time in his view of exterritorial life. I also found, as you will too, that his storytelling qualities made it impossible to put his story down until I finished it!
I am presently working on a second volume of lost vintage Sci-fi Pulp, which will also soon be published exclusively on Kindle.
