Book Description
Under the pseudonym Ralph Milne Farley, Hoar wrote a considerable amount of pulp-magazine science fiction during the period between the world wars, appearing in such publications as Argosy All-Story Weekly, Weird Tales, True Gang Life, and Amazing Stories, as well as occasional essays for The American Mercury, Scientific American, and science fiction fanzines. His works include The Radio Man and its numerous sequels, chiefly interplanetary and inner-world adventure yarns in the tradition of Edgar Rice Burroughs, with whom he was friends; Hoar also wrote a number of archetypal time-travel-paradox tales, collected in book form as The Omnibus of Time, and "The House of Ecstasy," told in the second-person and frequently reprinted since its initial appearance in Weird Tales (April 1938 issue).

Book Description
Armchair fiction presents deluxe paperback editions of the best in classic science fiction novels. Ralph Milne Farley's "The Radio Beasts" is a classic science fiction story, much in the vein of Edgar Rice Burroughs. Accidentally shot into space while conducting experiments with the radio transmission of matter, Myles Cabot had inadvertently landed on Venus, and in two short, thrill-filled years he had changed the entire course of civilization on that far-off world. He led the humanoid race of Cupians to victory over the monstrous ant men, married the lovely Cupian princess Lilla, and proceeded to make scientific discoveries in peace, until... In one sweeping blow, the ant men came roaring back in fierce retaliation. Cabot soon found himself alone in an alien land, his King murdered, his wife unprotected in a castle miles to the north, and his people vanquished. So northward he marched, a million terrifying obstacles in his way, with only his unshakable desire to liberate his adopted people and save his loved one to keep him going.

Book Description
Myles Standish Cabot, radio genius, who solved the secret of the wireless transmission of matter, returns to Earth from Poros-the planet Venus-whose inhabitants, the Cupians, are much like men, except that they have antennae, instead of ears, and communicate by radio. Cabot relates how the conquered Formians (see The Radio Man), giant, intelligent ant-men, conspired with Prince Yuri, a renegade Cupian, and his followers to again take control of the planet.

Book Description
A haunted house and a ghostly woman are the instruments that release an ancient curse upon the forgotten city of Paradys. As a savage, unholy beast prowls the city’s streets, a young student seeks to uncover the secrets that will lead to his salvation. Lee infuses this dark tale, the second volume in the series, with a dreamlike quality that hovers, like the world in The Book of the Damned, on the border of reality.

Book Description
Beasts of the Deep: Sea Creatures and Popular Culture offers its readers an in-depth and interdisciplinary engagement with the sea and its monstrous inhabitants; through critical readings of folklore, weird fiction, film, music, radio and digital games. Within the text there are a multitude of convergent critical perspectives used to engage and explore fictional and real monsters of the sea in media and folklore. The collection features chapters from a variety of academic perspectives; post- modernism, psychoanalysis, industrial-organisational analysis, fandom studies, sociology and philosophy are featured. Under examination are a wide range of narratives and media forms that represent, reimagine and create the Kraken, mermaids, giant sharks, sea draugrs and even the weird creatures of H.P. Lovecraft. Beasts of the Deep offers an expansive study of our sea-born fears and anxieties, that are crystallised in a variety of monstrous forms. Repeatedly the chapters in the collection encounter the contemporary relevance of our fears of the sea and its inhabitants – through the dehumanising media depictions of refugees in the Mediterranean to the encroaching ecological disasters of global warming, pollution and the threat of mass marine extinction.
