Book excerpt: Hugo and Locus Award Finalist An Economist Best Book of the Year A Milwaukee Journal Sentinel Best Book of 2018 “An amazing and engrossing history...Insightful, entertaining, and compulsively readable.” — George R. R. Martin Astounding is the landmark account of the extraordinary partnership between four controversial writers—John W. Campbell, Isaac Asimov, Robert A. Heinlein, and L. Ron Hubbard—who set off a revolution in science fiction and forever changed our world. This remarkable cultural narrative centers on the figure of John W. Campbell, Jr., whom Asimov called “the most powerful force in science fiction ever.” Campbell, who has never been the subject of a biography until now, was both a visionary author—he wrote the story that was later filmed as The Thing—and the editor of the groundbreaking magazine best known as Astounding Science Fiction, in which he discovered countless legendary writers and published classic works ranging from the I, Robot series to Dune. Over a period of more than thirty years, from the rise of the pulps to the debut of Star Trek, he dominated the genre, and his three closest collaborators reached unimaginable heights. Asimov became the most prolific author in American history; Heinlein emerged as the leading science fiction writer of his generation with the novels Starship Troopers and Stranger in a Strange Land; and Hubbard achieved lasting fame—and infamy—as the founder of the Church of Scientology. Drawing on unexplored archives, thousands of unpublished letters, and dozens of interviews, Alec Nevala-Lee offers a riveting portrait of this circle of authors, their work, and their tumultuous private lives. With unprecedented scope, drama, and detail, Astounding describes how fan culture was born in the depths of the Great Depression; follows these four friends and rivals through World War II and the dawn of the atomic era; and honors such exceptional women as Doña Campbell and Leslyn Heinlein, whose pivotal roles in the history of the genre have gone largely unacknowledged. For the first time, it reveals the startling extent of Campbell’s influence on the ideas that evolved into Scientology, which prompted Asimov to observe: “I knew Campbell and I knew Hubbard, and no movement can have two Messiahs.” It looks unsparingly at the tragic final act that estranged the others from Campbell, bringing the golden age of science fiction to a close, and it illuminates how their complicated legacy continues to shape the imaginations of millions and our vision of the future itself. "Enthralling…A clarion call to enlarge American literary history.” — Washington Post “Engrossing, well-researched… This sure-footed history addresses important issues, such as the lack of racial diversity and gender parity for much of the genre’s history.” — Wall Street Journal “A gift to science fiction fans everywhere.” — Sylvia Nasar, New York Times bestselling author of A Beautiful Mind

Book excerpt: This is a complete page-by-page replica of the legendary 1927 Amazing Stories Annual, produced by Hugo Gernsback. Few copies the 1927 Annual survive today-in fact, one of the original issues recently sold on eBay for over $350. It featured one of Edgar Rice Burroughs Barsoom novels, The Master-Mind of Mars, in its first appearance anywhere. It was especially written for Amazing Stories and features eleven illustrations from the grandfather of science fiction art, Frank R. Paul, who produced some of his finest illustrative work ever. The annual also featured two stories from the opposite end of th science fiction spectrum fans had been begging Gernsback to reprint: A. Merritt's best short novel, "The Face in the Abyss," and his celebrated short, "The People of the Pit," again with Paul's inimitable illustrations. Merritt was considered the finest U.S. science fiction writer of the time (a position confirmed in 1999 when he was inducted posthumously into the Science Fiction Hall of Fame). The annual also featured Austin Hall's celebrated "The Man Who Saved the Earth," A. Hyatt Verrill's "The Man who Could Vanish," a straight-faced jape from the distinguished ethnologist; and "Under the Knife," an incomparable story by the incomparable H.G. Wells. This replica reprint is an essential addition to any fan's library.

Book excerpt: This volume, Amazing Stories, Volume 1, No. 1, was originally published in 1926 by Experimenter Publishing Company, New York, and until now only available in rare print volumes, scans, or as plain text files produced via computer OCR, which results in numerous errors and mistakes and lack formatting. This version, by Sulis International, has been carefully edited, formatted, and typeset. We have left most archaic spellings and words as in the original, only editing for punctuation, typographical errors, and formatting._Amazing Stories_ was founded and published by Hugo Gernsback in 1926, and continued to be published monthly or bi-monthly until 2014 (with some interruptions). This first volume, published in April of 1926, contained reprints of stories, some in serial format across multiple volumes, and included such established authors as Jules Verne, H. G. Wells, and Edgar Allan Poe. The introductions and call-outs in the stories show Gernsback's preference for "scientification," where he explains and comments on each story.Gernsback believed that the goal of science fiction was to both entertain and to teach, a characteristic he called "scientification." Though readers found fantastic stories more interesting, and the magazine began including more such stories, _Amazing Stories_ is responsible for created the genre of science fiction magazines and the first science fiction fan club. Authors such as Isaac Asimov, John W. Campbell, Ursula K. Le Guin, and Roger Zelazny would have their first stories published in _Amazing Stories_.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although he is most remembered for his vast collection of science fiction memorabilia; his influential magazine, Famous Monsters of Filmland; and his frequent sci-fi convention appearances, Forrest J Ackerman (1916-2008) also left a sizeable body of work in print. An introductory biographical section traces Ackerman's early enthusiasm for pulp magazines and film productions of a fantastic nature, his rise to prominence in "fandom," his acquisition of memorabilia, his work as a literary agent, the founding of his landmark magazine in 1958, and his friendship with a number of performers and personnel from genre films. The extensive bibliography includes listings of books, published letters, articles, fiction, verse, speeches, screenplays, comics, discography, liner notes, and periodicals edited and published by Ackerman. A thorough filmography, a selected listing of nationally televised appearances, and rare photographs of Ackerman throughout his lifetime complete this definitive catalog of one of science fiction's most interesting personalities.
