Publisher's summary

Radio Archives Pulp Classics - Planet Stories audiobook - March 1953.

Total pulp experience. These exciting pulp adventures have been beautifully reformatted for easy listening as an audiobook that features every story, every editorial, and every column of the original pulp magazine.

During the science-fiction boom of the 1930s, there were more than a dozen pulp magazines dedicated to the subject. Analog, Startling Stories, Amazing Stories, Wonder Stories, Captain Future, and Super Science Stories were just a few. In 1939, the pulp magazine publisher of Jungle Stories, and many others, added its own entry into the sci-fi field, Planet Stories. Until it folded in 1955, it published groundbreaking science fiction from some of the genre's brightest stars. Planet Stories returns in these vintage pulp tales, reissued for today’s listeners in electronic format.

Table of contents:

A novel of distant worlds: "The Warlock of Sharrador", by Gardner F. Fox

For unremembered eons, the Thing had slept. For a million years, it had quested through the star worlds of its dreams, until it lived only as a faint legend in the race memories of mankind. But now, the time had come for man to recall its name and to worship it once again. Noorlythin arose and went out into the world of men and robots.

"What Inhabits Me?" - star-flung novelet by R. M. Williams

What vast secret would it hold? What startling discoveries...what dire news would it bring back from deep space after 20 lost years? Fearfully, men of Pluto watched as the Andromeda glided awesomely into the spaceport.

"The Berserker" - star-flung novelet by Charles V. De Vet

There was no reckoning with the Berserker. Twas said that “when an opening comes, he’ll play for it. And he’ll do it with Mars-minded violence!”

"Chicken Farm" - short story by Ross Rocklynne

Harvey was a humorless little man; a man with great singleness of purpose.
