[August 15, 1964] What are you thinking? (The Whole Man aka Telepathist by John Brunner; The Universe Against Her, by James H. Schmitz)

2 Comments

[This month's Galactoscope features a pair of books with a common subject — but you already know what it is, if you possess the powers associated with that subject…] by Victoria Silverwolf Out of Many, One Baby USA and the National Bird fighting over a ribbon. It may seem highly eccentric to write a piece … Continue reading [August 15, 1964] What are you thinking? (The Whole Man aka Telepathist by John Brunner; The Universe Against Her, by James H.

[March 25, 1962] A Double Hit (A. Bertram Chandler's The Rim of Space and John Brunner's Secret Agent of Terra)

4 Comments

by Rosemary Benton I love the bookstore in my town. Not only do they have a newsstand in front that provides me with the latest world events and developments in the US space program, but they have a very comprehensive science fiction section, front and center, as you walk in. I'll occasionally look at the … Continue reading [March 25, 1962] A Double Hit (A. Bertram Chandler's The Rim of Space and John Brunner's Secret Agent of Terra) →

[November 6, 1969] I Can See For Miles (Piers Anthony's Macroscope)

2 Comments

No, this is not Galactoscope, which is still a week-and-a-half off, but a review (I suppose in keeping with the subject's rather large girth) presented on its own. Last year, I believe almost to the day, we got Piers Anthony’s previous novel, Omnivore, which I reviewed a few months later. (There are so many paperbacks … Continue reading [November 6, 1969] I Can See For Miles (Piers Anthony's Macroscope) →

[November 2, 1969] Love and Hate (December 1969 IF)

1 Comment

by David Levinson A paper dragon Back in April, I wrote about a border skirmish between the Soviet Union and China. That wasn’t the end of the matter. The Soviets went on a minor diplomatic offensive, trying to get India to join an alliance against China and to pull North Korea back into the Soviet … Continue reading [November 2, 1969] Love and Hate (December 1969 IF) →

[October 16, 1969] The March Goes On (October 1969 Galactoscope)

Leave a comment

by Gideon Marcus Unusually for the Galactoscope, our monthly round-up of new science fiction publications, we're starting this article with a stop press. It's simply too big an item to ignore. If you read the papers this morning, you know the big news was that the Mets played the winning game of the World Series … Continue reading [October 16, 1969] The March Goes On (October 1969 Galactoscope) →

[September 6, 1969] A hot time in the old town (Worldcon in St. Louis!)

12 Comments

by Gideon Marcus What an idea to have the 27th World Science Fiction Convention in crummy St. Louis in summer!  It was hot.  It was muggy. From Fanac And it was glorious.  Thanks, Ozark SF Assn., particularly co-chairs Ray and Joyce Fisher, for your bid and your hard work.  Apparently, the bid traced its beginnings … Continue reading [September 6, 1969] A hot time in the old town (Worldcon in St. Louis!) →

Join us on August 29 at 7pm Pacific Daylight Time for the first edition of Science Fiction Theater—every week, we'll broadcast an excellent show or two, accompanied by fanzine readings and, of course, with commercials! By Mx Kris Vyas-Myall In general, there is a certain patriarchal attitude us Brits have towards the Commonwealth. We assume … Continue reading [August 28, 1969] Aussie-British Publishing (Vision of Tomorrow #1) →

[August 10, 1969] Pushing the Envelope (September 1969 Amazing)

3 Comments

by John Boston The September Amazing is fronted by one of Johnny Bruck’s more cliched covers, this one from Perry Rhodan #59 from 1962.  It’s notable mainly for the fact that the guy with two guns and a fierce expression seems to be diving through a matter transmitter, and we see, impossibly, both the origin … Continue reading [August 10, 1969] Pushing the Envelope (September 1969 Amazing) →

[July 16, 1969] Not all Jake(s) (July 1969 Galactoscope)

Leave a comment

Aside from the stray short story I have to admit I had not read any of John Jakes’s novels, of which there have been many as of late—so many, in fact, that we folks at the Journey have not been able to cover every new Jakes book. Just this year alone we’ve gotten three or … Continue reading [July 16, 1969] Not all Jake(s) (July 1969 Galactoscope) →
