One of the tall, kindly-faced canine people was standing in the doorway now, the white light streaming out around him into the night, casting a grotesque shadow on the landing field, for all the flood lights bathing in it.
Zezdon Afthen came up and spoke quickly to the man evidently in command of the ship. The entire party went into the ship, and the cream of their laboratory instruments was brought in.
For hours Arcot, Morey and Wade worked at the apparatus in the ship, measuring, calculating, following electrical and magnetic and sheer force hook-ups of staggering complexity. They were not trying to find the exact method of construction, only the principles . . . Read More

Thought I would try some old time Science fiction. John W. Campbell is famous for his novella "Who Goes There?", the basis for movies "The Thing from Another World" and "John Carpenter's The Thing?. He was also responsible for assembling the great authors of "Astounding Science Fiction" Magazine bac

All that's good and bad about early American SF
Campbell is the father of American SF. Descriptions are beautiful; ideas are challenging; technology is imaginative. The aliens are well thought out. However...the core flaw is that characterization is weak. Arcott, Morey and Wade are interchangeable. T
John W. Campbell is a pioneer editor for Science Fiction magazines of the Golden Age. He put a lot of effort to compile "hard-science" stories and had a taste for stories which employed plausible scientific theories and devices.
Invaders form the Infinite is one of the series of books he wrote, emplo
