Black Cat Weekly #174

Peter Pettigrew, a timid and unassuming Air Raid Warden trainee in World War II, often escapes into daydreams where he imagines himself as a heroic figure battling dark forces. But when a city-wide blackout drill thrusts him into a real-life encounter with Nazi saboteurs and a mystical figure claiming to be the Sandman, Peter's courage is put to the test. Armed with nothing but a gas mask and his wits, Peter must stop a plot to destroy the Armory, discovering that even the most unlikely hero can rise to the occasion.

Peter Pettigrew's Prisoner

Nelson Slade Bond (1908-2006) had a remarkable career as a science fiction writer. He wrote extensively for books, radio, television and the stage, and especially the pulp magazines. Like Ray Bradbury, he did his journeyman work in the science fiction pulps before graduating to the higher-paying “slick” magazines like Bluebook. The quality of his work was such that Arkham House, Gnome Press, Prime Press, and Doubleday issued collections of his early short stories. At Wildside Press, we were fortunate enough to work with him in his twilight years, and we reprinted his "Lancelog Biggs, Spaceman" collection, as well as a solo work, "That Worlds May Live," and made him the Featured Author of an early issue of Adventure Tales magazine. This volume includes: TROUBLE ON TYCHO SHADRACH THE LORELEI DEATH BEYOND LIGHT CAPTAIN CHAOS COLOSSUS OF CHAOS DICTATOR OF TIME LIGHTER THAN YOU THINK REVOLT ON IO THE BALLAD OF VENUS NELL THE CASTAWAY THE ULTIMATE SALIENT THE BALLAD OF BLASTER BILL If you enjoy this volume, search your favorite ebook store for "Wildside Press MEGAPACK" to see the 400+ other entries in the series, covering science fiction, modern authors, mysteries, westerns, classics, adventure stories, and much, much more!

Raymond Z. Gallun

Armchair Fiction presents classic science fiction double novels. The first novel is "Sons of the Deluge" by Nelson S. Bond. With Mexican security hot on their trail, Duke Callion and Joey Cox sought refuge in an obscure Yucatan peninsula town. There they were rescued by a mysterious man who offered his own abode as their hideout. But Callion and Cox were bewildered by their new friend's fantastic tale. he claimed to be a member of the Atlantean race--a race extinct for thousands of years, wiped out by a titanic flood. Quelchal had been exiled in time, 12,000 years into the future! But it was his grand plan to return to the past and somehow warn his people of the impending disaster; to somehow save them from the wall of water that would destroy the entire Atlantean culture. Using his incredible time ship, and with Callion and Cox by his side, the trio embarked on a daring and deadly adventure, traveling back to the age of Atlantean splendor--to warn a civilization, before it was too late... The second novel is by lauded sci-fi author Raymond Z. Gallun, "Dawn of the Demi-gods." Eons before man set foot into outer space there had been a great war. A war between Mars and Planet X. The conflict came to a bloody end with the destruction of all life on Mars and the obliteration of Planet X, which was reduced to rubble and became the asteroid belt. But centuries later strange things began to happen on Jupiter's moon, Ganymede. There came a report of the discovery of a cache of tools in a chest that was of almost microscopic dimensions. In finding it, several men were afflicted with dizziness. One had died. It soon became clear that the hand of an alien race was responsible--an alien race of almost unfathomable smallness. And soon, as unheralded as ghosts, but as significant as a new dawn of history, there came to Earth from distant Ganymede's glowing crescent--three micro-androids, minuscule beings, carrying the treasure of immortality.
