A Galaxy Trilogy

This collection of classic science-fiction stories from the 1950s and 1960s features three imaginative novellas from some of the pioneers of the genre.

Back in the 1950s at the dawn of science fiction, writers were turning out wildly imaginative stories for the pulp magazines. Robert Silverberg, writing as David Osborne, estimates he wrote over a million words in one year. Here are three more exciting stories from those heady days from the pioneers of science fiction: "Aliens from Space" by David Osborne, "The Man with Three Eyes" by E. L. Arch, and "Conquest of Earth" by Manly.

In "Giants from Eternity", scientist Oliver Norfleet and his buddy Spencer DuPogue turn to history's greatest scientific minds to stop a mysterious red blight that is growing around the site of a meteor crash and consuming everything in its path. In "Lords of Atlantis", Atlantis had once been ruled by the Titans, who were replaced by the red-skinned, red-haired Martians Zeus, Hera, Athena, and others. In "City on the Moon", the Earth shuttle's moon-based landing mechanism is destroyed by an avalanche.

Before Gene Roddenberry and George Lucas, the pulp-science-fiction writers of the 1950s and 1960s were writing some of the hippest genre literature of the era. Listen to three more stories from the pioneers of the early days of pulp science fiction in this final volume of the Galaxy Trilogy series.
