Download or read book The 16th Golden Age of Science Fiction MEGAPACK 18 Stories by William C Gault written by William C. Gault and published by Wildside Press LLC. This book was released on 2015-04-26 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: William Campbell Gault (1910–1995) was an American writer. He wrote under his own name, as well as (among others) the pseudonyms Roney Scott, Larry Sternig, and Will Duke. He is probably best remembered for his sports fiction, particularly the young-readers’ novels he began publishing in the early 1960s. Gault was also an acclaimed mystery writer. He was not limited to sports and mysteries, though—he also wrote a substantial body of science fiction. (Admittedly, he did mix crime and sports into his science fiction!) We believe this volume is the largest collection of his fantastic work ever produced.

Nourse, medical doctor and science fiction author, who paid his way through med school with his writing.

We are delighted to include no less than 22 of his classic tales in this volume.

This book was released on 2015-02-03 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: George T. Wetzel (1921-1983) was, for decades, the leading researcher into the life and works of H.P. Lovecraft. His scholarly essays (which Wildside Press is working on collecting) appeared in numerous books and magazines from the 1940s through the 1970s. All the time he dabbled in writing weird fiction on his own, but never pursued it beyond the occasional contribution to a small press anthology or fan-produced magazine. Like his idol, H.P. Lovecraft, he dabbled in the art. We are pleased to include a fine selection of virtually all of his fiction, including: A TALE OF THE ELDER GODS ANONYMOUS THE GOTHIC HORROR CAER SIDHI THE ENTITY EATER OF THE DEAD NIGHTMARE HOUSE WHAT THE MOON BRINGS NIGHT ON FORT CARROLL POISON PEN THE ADVENTURE OF GOSNELL JUMBEE SEEING THINGS AT NIGHT THE PIRATE OF SHELL CASTLE If you enjoy this book, search your favorite ebook store for "Wildside Press Megapack" to see the more than 180 other entries in the series, covering science fiction, modern authors, mysteries, westerns, classics, adventure stories, and much, much more!

Download or read book The Milton A Rothman Science Fiction MEGAPACK written by Milton A. Rothman and published by Wildside Press LLC. This book was released on 2014-10-29 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Milton A. Rothman was best known to generations of science-fiction readers for a single classic story written at age 19: "Heavy Planet," published under the byline of "Lee Gregor" in 'Astounding Science Fiction' in 1939 at the beginning of the Golden Age and kept in print for decades in the classic anthology 'Adventures in Time and Space'. He was also a pioneer of early fandom, a founder of the Philadelphia Science Fiction Society, a fanzine publisher, and a World Science Fiction Convention chairman. After World War II, he became one of the country's leading nuclear physicists, but continued to write science fiction throughout his life. Here, for the first time, all his science fiction stories are collected in one volume, giving a clear picture of the author's development from youth to old age, reflecting lifelong preoccupations with physics, mathematics, music, the futility of war, and, of course, science fiction itself. Here is an authentic voice from the early years of the modern science fiction field. Features an introduction by science fiction master Frederik Pohl, and afterwords by son Tony Rothman as well as fan and fellow author Robert A. Madle. Edited by Darrell Schweitzer and Lee Weinstein. An earlier version of this book appeared as "Heavy Planet and Other Science Fiction Stories." Included are: MILT ROTHMAN, by Frederik Pohl HEAVY PLANET SHAWN'S SWORD ASTEROID FLIGHT TO GALILEO POWER PLANT LAST NIGHT OUT FORMULA FOR GALAXY 1 FORMULA FOR MURDER GETTING TOGETHER FUSION PRIME CRIME THE ETERNAL GENESIS HOLOCAUST SKYLARK VS.

Download or read book The Second Space Patrol MEGAPACK written by Eando Binder and published by Wildside Press LLC. This book was released on 2015-01-29 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is our second (of three) collections of Space Patrol stories by "Eando Binder" (Otto O. Binder). Starting with the February, 1946 issue, every issue of Captain Marvel Adventures included a 2-page short story featuring Lt. Jon Jarl of the Space Patrol. These juvenile space operas -- designed to appeal to kids -- featured daring-do by a two-fisted young member of the Space Patrol. In a solar system where seemingly every planet and moon can support life and the asteroid belt harbors numerous space pirates and criminals, Jon Jarl always seems to save the day. If you've seen the early TV adventures of Captain Video and His Video Rangers, Space Patrol, or Tom Corbett, Space Cadet -- which were clearly influenced by Binder's writing (as well as the shared universe of "space opera" that had been developed in Amazing Stories magazine under editor Ray Palmer) -- you will know what you're in for...a ride into the Wild West of outer space, where physics and logic never get in the way of a good story! Includes 30 short stories.
