The Forrest J Ackerman Oeuvre
Author: Christopher M. O’Brien
Publisher: McFarland
ISBN: 0786449845
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 242
Book Description
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.

Phenomenal Stories, Vol. 2, No. 11
Author: Shawn M Tomlinson
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781794733343
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 200
Book Description
For the November 2019 issue of Phenomenal Stories, we pay tribute to the man who fathered the Golden Age of Science Fiction. John W. Champbell Jr. had his flaws, but when he took the helm at Astounding Stories in October 1937, the world was about to change. Over the next few years, modern science fiction was born with writers such as Robert A. Heinlein, Isaac Asimov and A.E. van Vogt. Plus, of course, we have other great fiction and non-fiction from some of the usual suspects, including J.D. Hayes-Canell and Richard H. Nilsen. We continue the classic and only Conan novel, 'Hour of the Dragon," by Robert E. Howard, and the strange early scientific novel, 'Girl in the Golden Atom' by Ray Cummings. Phenomenal Stories is a tribute to the speculative pulp magazines of the 1930s and 1940s, such as Weird Tales, Amazing Stories and Astounding Science Fiction. Shawn M. Tomlinson serves as editor.

H. Beam Piper
Author: John F. Carr
Publisher: McFarland
ISBN: 1476614571
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 264
Book Description
H. Beam Piper is one of science fiction’s most enigmatic writers. In 1946 Piper appeared seemingly from out of nowhere, already at the top of his form. He published a number of memorable short stories in the premier science fiction magazine of the time, Astounding Science Fiction, under legendary editor John W. Campbell. Piper quickly became friends with many of the top writers of the day, including Lester Del Rey, Fletcher Pratt, Robert Heinlein and L. Sprague de Camp. Piper also successfully made the turn from promising short story writer to major novelist, authoring Four-Day Planet, Cosmic Computer, Lord Kalvan of Otherwhen and Little Fuzzy, which was nominated for a Hugo award. Even those who counted Piper among their friends knew very little about the man or his life as a railroad yard bull in Altoona, Pennsylvania. This biography illuminates H. Beam Piper, both the writer and the man, and answers lingering questions about his death. Appendices include a number of Piper’s personal papers, a complete bibliography of Piper’s works, and an essay on Piper’s Terro-Human Future History series.
