"They're timeless." —Paul Goat Allen, B&N Explorations "Hubbard was one of the country’s most prolific pulp science fiction writers." —Alan Cheuse, NPR’s All Things Considered"[L. Ron Hubbard] cut a swath across the science-fantasy world, the likes of which has never been seen again." —Damon Knight, SF Author and Founder of Sci-Fi Writers of AmericaBy the end of 1937, L. Ron Hubbard had proven he could glide with ease from genre to genre—adventure, western, mystery, detective, and even romance—and was regularly featured in such acknowledged “crown jewels” of the pulp fiction world as Adventure and Argosy magazines.By the spring of 1938, with his now well-established stature as a writer—or, in the words of author and critic Robert Silverberg, as a “master of the art of narrative”—L. Ron Hubbard was invited to apply his gifts for succinct characterization, original plot, deft pacing, and imaginative action to a genre that was new, and essentially foreign to him—science fiction and fantasy. The reverberations of that invitation continue to this day.Sci-fi fantasy readers looking for action-packed adventure with a sense of realism will find it in these ten sci-fi fantasy short stories, in four volumes.One Was Stubborn: Things are disappearing. Parts of buildings, parts of people, parts of the whole world. Old Shellback needs to open his eyes, and see that George Smiley, the Messiah, is busy dismantling the world. But two can play at this game. While George is making the world disappear, Old Shellback will make another one appear—and take an amazing journey back to a future of his own making. Is it the end of the world—or just the end of the world as we know it?Also includes "A Can of Vacuum", in which a practical joke on a space station proves that a good sense of humor is timeless, and "240,000 Miles Straight Up", a thrilling race to the moon… and the one man who may be able to save the earth from Armageddon.
