Vintage sci-fi and fantasy from the 1940s to the 1960s was a thinking person’s venue.
While it’s true there was terror, suspense and plenty of violence in these plot-filled stories, there was also an abundance of irony, hard science and unsolvable paradoxes.
This is what separates the golden age of sci-fi from much of the crap being turned into movies today. Perhaps, society is just too dumbed down to get the vintage stories like the five I have read and edited for this collection. Or, perhaps many of those in this over-stimulated society just can’t sit still and focus long enough to read and comprehend these masterpieces.
No matter.
I compiled this 129-page, illustrated collection exclusively for Kindle and for you -- the real hardcore sci-fi junkie, young or old, who knows and appreciates good stuff when he reads it.
I hope you enjoy stories like “The Beast of Space,” or “The Glory of Ippling, not to mention, “Sodom and Gomorrah, Texas.
