Armchair Fiction presents extra-large editions of classic science fiction double novels with original illustrations. This double novel leads off with "The Soul Snatchers" by Lee Francis. It was mind control in a small black box. Marco Lee was a genius, and not just any genius--he was probably the best nuclear physicist in the country, one of the key men in the development of the atomic bomb. He was employed at a closely guarded atomic facility where top secret scientific info and data--vital to the nation's security--passed through his hands on a daily basis. But then one day something happened to Marco Lee. He found himself wandering the streets in an almost mindless state, searching for something he knew not what. But when he finally found the object of his strange quest, it turned out to be a simple, yet sinister-looking, small black box. And what it contained was something so terrific it threatened the safety of the entire world. It was only with the help of a big-hearted waitress that Lee began to slowly realize what was happening to him, and the sinister plot his genius mind had become ensnared in. Our second novel is a grim tale of the future--Robert Moore Williams' "Doomsday Eve." It was a split-second race with world's end! In the midst of the war--that terrible conflict that threatened to obliterate all living creatures on Earth--the "new people" suddenly appeared. Quietly performing incredible deeds, vanishing at will, they were an enigma to both sides. Kurt Zen was a tough, loyal American intelligence officer among the many sent to find out who the new people really were and root them out. He found them. Taken captive in their hidden lair, he waited as the enemy prepared to launch the super missile, the bomb to end all bombs--and end all life with it. If only he could find the source of the new people's power, Kurt alone might be able to stop their nefarious plans and prevent obliteration of the Earth...

Stone Age Science Fiction Stories from the Past

Publicity Stunt

The legends clustering around the new people began before the war, while the man who started the group, old Jal Jonnor, was alive, but they received their greatest circulation during the conflict. If the war is long and the fighting is bitter, with neither side able to achieve victory or even a substantial advantage, soldiers eventually begin to tell strange stories of sights seen when death is near, of miraculous deliveries from destruction, of impossible ships seen above the Earth, and even of non-human allies fighting on their side. Psychologists, given to believing only what they can see, feel, hear, or measure, generally have credited these stories to hallucinations resulting from long-sustained stress, or, in the case of the non-human allies, to plain, wishful thinking rising out of a deep feeling of insecurity. What psychologist was ever willing to believe that an angel suddenly took over the controls of a falling fighting plane, righting the ship and bringing it down to Earth in a crash landing that enabled the wounded pilot to crawl away, then curing the wound the pilot had sustained? Red-Dog Jimmie Thurman swore this happened to him. He had tangled with an Asian fighter group escorting a hot, high level bomber over the north pole. This was in the early days of the war when such bombers still slipped through the defenses occasionally. Red-Dog Jimmie Thurman had got one of the fighters with a single burst from his guns and was pushing his jet straight up at the soft belly of the bomber far overhead when a shell, from an Asian fighter that he had not seen, knocked off half of his right wing. A fragment of the exploding shell hit him in the right shoulder, mangling the flesh and the bone. Spinning like a leaf being whirled over and over in a hurricane, the plane started the long plunge downward toward the polar ice cap below. Jimmie couldn't work the seat ejection mechanism because of his broken arm.
