A collection of short stories from a truly original author.
Alien invasions on the earth bring devastation to the land. The population are randomly committing suicide, seemingly from a type of hypnosis. Can a group of the most intelligent scientists in the world put a stop to it? Or is the technology they are facing too great for them to overcome?
A murder in the Observatory, the culprit caught red handed. Or is there something more to uncover? Nothing is as it seems as a top scientific detective takes on the case to establish the true facts of that fatal day.
A laughing gas contaminates the earth with deadly consequences. But what is causing this phenomenon? And can it be contained before the entire human race succumbs to the bizarre symptoms?
Twilight of the Tenth World is an assortment of brilliantly written Sci-fi tales that will keep you hooked until the very end.
"... A pioneer of science fiction [... ] he was one of the Greats of the earlier ages, and his name should be there with Hugo Gernsback, John W. Campbell, Stanley G. Weinbaum, Murray Leinster, and all the others whose thoughts and works formulated today's modern science fiction." - John Carnell, New Worlds
