About the Author

L. Ron Hubbard's legendary writing career spanned more than half a century of enduring literary achievement and creative influence, encompassing more than 250 published novels, novelettes, short stories and screenplays in every major genre. Among his best-selling and classic speculative fiction trendsetters are "Mission Earth," "Fear" and "Final Blackout."

Hailed as a writer's writer and an unexcelled master of narrative prose, his life experiences and travels in all corners of the globe were wide and diverse. His inexhaustible curiosity and intense personal belief that one should live a life as a professional led to a lifetime of extraordinary accomplishment. He was also an explorer and ethnologist, mariner and pilot, filmmaker and photographer, philosopher and educator, composer and musician.

Mr. Hubbard passed away in 1986, but his literary legacy lives on indelibly in works that continue to reverberate down through generations and millions of readers, making him one of the most widely read and highly acclaimed writers of our time.

Reviews

This title is now better remembered for being transformed into one of the worst B-movies in history. Don't blame the book, however, which is well regarded in sf circles. This 20th-anniversary edition offers the full text of the original. Galaxy Press, which launched this July, will reprint a number of Hubbard's books. If your existing copy looks as if it has been on the battlefield, this quality hardcover will make a nice replacement.
