Synopsis
Space western, space pirates, space derelicts, space detectives, space bandits, space mysteries . . . And all of them started in the Pulp era. ᕦ(ò_óˇ)ᕤ
- This anthology focuses on space adventures short stories and novelettes published between 1930’s and 1950’s where many fascinating stories are easy to miss among so much mass-produced literature in the American pulp era magazines. In them you’ll find all sort of space action, adventure and some romance, in the fast and entertaining style of the pulps.
- Includes Illustrations from the original Pulp magazines.
- On this second Volume:
• Morgue Ship by Ray Bradbury: This was Burnett’s last trip. Three more shelves to fill with space-slain warriors—and he would be among the living again.
• Phantom of the Seven Stars by Ray Cummings: Everyone aboard the Seven Stars scoffed at the idea of a Phantom Pirate. Bat I.P. agent Jim Fanning didn’t laugh. He knew the luxury-liner’s innocent looking cargo was already marked for plunder.
• S.O.S. Aphrodite! by Stanley Mullen: It was a ship of hate and evil, and IP patrolman Steve Coran trusted only one person—after strapping her in her bunk! ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
• Vagabonds of Space by Harl Vincent: From the depths of the Sargasso Sea of Space came the thought-warning, “Turn back!” But Carr and his Martian friend found it was too late!
• Creatures of Vibration by Harl Vincent: Sequel to Vagabonds of Space. The Vagabonds are cast into the hands of the vibration-maddened natives of Titan, satellite of Saturn.
• Captives of the Thieve-Star by James H. Schmitz: When Peer and Channok grappled the derelict Ro-Twelve, they hooked a death-prize—haunted by the Yomm, stalked by the Mysterious Nine!
• The Legion of Lazarus by Edmond Hamilton: Being expelled from an air lock into deep space was the legal method of execution. But it was also the only way a man could qualify for—The Legion of Lazarus.
• Suicide Squadrons of Space by David Wright O’Brien: Craig Starke got the shock of his life when his kid brother turned up in his own suicide squad.
