TWO COMPLETE SCIENCE-ADVENTURE BOOKS
- TWO COMPLETE SCIENCE-ADVENTURE BOOKS
US PULP MAGAZINE.Thrice yearly, 11 issues Winter 1950-Spring 1954, published by Wings Publishing Co.; ed Jerome BIXBY (Winter 1950-Summer 1951), Malcolm Reiss (Winter 1951-Summer 1953) and Katharine Daffron(Winter 1953-Spring 1954). Issues numbered \#1-\#11.A companion magazine to PLANET STORIES, TCSAB was originally intended to reprint in cheap magazine format recently published sf novels; \#1 contained Isaac ASIMOV's Pebble in the Sky (1950) and L. Ron HUBBARD's novella "The Kingslayer" (title story of The Kingslayer, coll 1949). This policy proved impossible to sustain; although there were a few more reprints, the majority of subsequent stories were original. These included: Arthur C. CLARKE's "The Seeker of the Sphinx" (Spring 1951; vt "The Road to the Sea"); James BLISH's The Warriors of Day (Summer 1951 as "Sword of Xota"; 1953) and "Sargasso ofLost Cities" (Spring 1953), one of his Okie series; L. Sprague DE CAMP's "The Tritonian Ring" (Winter 1951; title story of The Tritonian Ring coll 1953); and John BRUNNER's first (acknowledged) story, The Space-Time Juggler (Summer 1953 as "The Wanton of Argus" by Kilian Houston Brunner; 1963 chap dos as JB). TCSAB did not contain any editorial matter and was unusual among pulp sf magazines in seldom printing readers' letters.
