Über dieses E-Book
A classic novel of interplanetary warfare! There were nine major planets in the Solar System, and it was within their boundaries that man first set up interplanetary commerce and began trading with the ancient Martian civilization. And then they discovered a tenth planet -- a maverick! This tenth world, if it had an orbit, had a strange one, for it was heading inwards from interstellar space, heading close to the Earth-Mars spaceways, upsetting astronautic calculations and raising turmoil on the two inhabited worlds But even so none suspected then just how much trouble this new world would make. For it was WANDL THE INVADER and it was no barren planetoid. It was a manned world, manned by minds and monsters and traveling into our system with a purpose beyond that of astronomical accident! (Goodreads)
Autoren-Profil
Ray Cummings (1887–1957) was a pioneering American science fiction writer, often referred to as one of the "founding fathers" of the genre. With a background in science, having worked as a technical writer for Thomas Edison, Cummings blended scientific knowledge with imaginative storytelling, becoming a key figure in early 20th-century pulp fiction. He is best known for his works exploring the possibilities of time and space, such as *The Girl in the Golden Atom* and *The Time Professor*, which helped lay the groundwork for modern science fiction.Though primarily associated with science fiction, Cummings was a versatile writer who also explored different genres, including adventure and romance. *An Artshop in Greenwich Village* reflects his fascination with bohemian culture and the vibrant artistic communities of New York in the early 1900s. Set in the iconic Greenwich Village, the novella captures the spirit of artistic rebellion and creative freedom that characterized the neighborhood at the time. This work showcased Cummings' ability to move beyond futuristic themes and engage with the contemporary social and cultural currents of his era.Cummings' prolific output and imaginative narratives left an indelible mark on American popular literature, and his contributions to science fiction remain influential today.
