    About this ebook

    This is a collection of stories by EDMOND HAMILTON (1904-1977), one of the early grandmasters of epic science-fantasy adventure. Whether it was galaxy-spanning space operas, with the seeming impossibility of crashing suns for weapons, or world of magic and mystery where the ancient Aztec Gods possessed seemingly supernatural powers, Hamilton was always able to supply a plausible scientific premise for his tales—which is, perhaps, not surprising considering he received his degree in physics. A poetic stylist and superb storyteller, in the vigorous, colorful Chretien de Troyes tradition, whose tales never let down or became boring for a moment once they begin, the consistent quality of Hamilton’s work earned him a place in the top ranks of science fantasy writers for more than four decades, beginning in the mid-1920s.
    This collection contains 24 Edmond Hamilton stories originally published in science fiction magazines between 1945 and 1962, and includes the following stories:
    “Invaders from the Monster World”
    “Transuranic”
    “Treasure on Thunder Moon”
    “The Quest in Time”
    “The Daughter of Thor”
    “The World with a Thousand Moons”
    “Lost City of Burma”
    “Priestess of the Labyrinth”
    “The Shining Land”
    “The Valley of the Gods”
    “Forgotten World”
    “The King of Shadows”
    “The Might-Have-Been”
    “Twilight of the Gods”
    “Alien Earth”
    “Lords of the Morning”
    “What’s It Like Out There?”
    “Sacrifice Hit”
    “The Legion of Lazarus”
    “The Tattooed Man”
    “The Sinister Invasion”
    “World of Never-Men”
