[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)

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) →

by Mark Yon Scenes from England Hello again. After the grumpiness of my last review, I’m pleased to say that 1969 has arrived and put me in a better frame of mind. I am determined that this new year will see me being more positive. Mind you, New Worlds seems determined at times to try … Continue reading [January 26, 1968] A New World Order New Worlds, February 1969 →

Leave a comment

by Mark Yon Scenes from England Hello again. A recent comment from our leader here at Galactic Journey caused me to pause for thought. As he summed up the year in science fiction, it struck me that we are about to end one year (not that un-obvious, admittedly) and about to begin the last year … Continue reading [December 26, 1968] Comfort OK?

by Mark Yon Scenes from England Hello. Testing, testing.. Anyone there? This feels a little like one of those lonely messages out on the ether, post-apocalypse. I was last here for the July 1968 issue, whose publication, if you remember, was at a time of turmoil…. And then nothing for nearly four months.

Kris Vyas-Myall Although only bi-annual, rather than quarterly, at the moment, Carnell continues to regularly release his anthology series, easily eclipsing Pohl’s Star series and Knight’s Orbit. Will it be lucky #13? New Writings in S-F 13 Carnell notes there is an international flavour to this volume, with four Brits, Two Aussies, One … Continue reading [October 12, 1968] (October 1968 Galactoscope) →
