Beschrijving
Mike Ashley embarks on an engaging journey through the realm of science-fiction pulp magazines, tracing their evolution from their inception to the year 1950. This initial volume lays a solid foundation for understanding how these magazines captured the imagination of readers and influenced the genre's development. With meticulous research, Ashley explores notable publications, key figures, and significant stories that marked the early days of sci-fi literature.
As he delves into the colorful world of pulp fiction, readers are introduced to the social and cultural contexts that fueled the genre's popularity. The narrative reveals not only the creative minds behind these stories but also the impact of technology and changing societal norms on the themes presented. This work serves as both a historical account and a celebration of the creativity that thrived in a rich, sometimes forgotten era of literary history.
