by Mx. Kris Vyas-Myall Move over James Bond and John Steed, there is a new dashing science fictional spy on the scene. I am of course referring to the latest hit from the team behind Doctor Who: Adam Adamant Lives! An old-fashioned Victorian swashbuckling hero, Adam Adamant is frozen by a masked supervillain and buried … Continue reading [September 4, 1966] British Science Fiction Lives!

by Gideon Marcus The Future Over in England, they're swimming in science fiction anthology-esque shows, from Out of the Unknown to Doctor Who.  What have we got Stateside?  Lost in Space?  My Favorite Martian?  Ever since The Outer Limits and The Twilight Zone went off the air, TV has been something of an SF wasteland.  … Continue reading [May 20, 1966] Things to Come and Things that Are(June 1966 Fantasy and Science Fiction) →

8 Comments

by Jason Sacks One of my favorite sci-fi publishers these days is Ace Books. We've talked about their double novels a lot on the Journey, so I'm sure you're well aware of them, but I'd like to take a moment to consider just how delightful their line has been over the last decade-plus. For the … Continue reading [April 18, 1966] Rocannon and the Kar-Chee →

by David Levinson Dodging the issue Conscription has been part of American military planning for a little over a century, and it’s never been popular.

[October 2, 1965] Gimmickry (November 1965 IF)

1 Comment

by David Levinson When I was a boy, a gimmick was either much the same thing as a gadget or the sort of device a crooked casino owner would use to make sure the roulette wheel comes up 22. These days, of course, it means an ingenious new angle or a trick to draw attention … Continue reading [October 2, 1965] Gimmickry (November 1965 IF) →

[October 26, 1964] A revolting set of circumstances (October 1964 Galactoscope #2)

4 Comments

by Gideon Marcus If there is one constant to the universe, it is change.  Appropriately, if there is one constant to government, it is that no system lasts forever.  Revolutions have occurred since the dawn of history, motivated by class resentment, public outrage, and plain avarice.  Some are cloaked in nobility, like the American Revolution; … Continue reading [October 26, 1964] A revolting set of circumstances (October 1964 Galactoscope #2) →
