After Worlds Collide (eBook, ePUB)

Beschreibung

The thrilling sequel to the apocalyptic bestseller When Worlds Collide. After Worlds Collide (1934) continues the story of the survivors' progress on their new world, Bronson Beta, following Earth's destruction. As American colonists explore the dangerous landscape in two ships, they encounter German, Russian, and Japanese survivors who have also made the journey. Co-written by Philip Gordon Wylie and Edwin Balmer, this classic science fiction adventure first appeared as a six-part monthly serial in Blue Book magazine from November 1933 to April 1934.

Autor

Philip Gordon Wylie (1902 - 1971) was a prolific American author of works ranging from pulp science fiction, mysteries, social diatribes and satire, to ecology and the threat of nuclear holocaust. He served as director of the Lerner Marine Laboratory, and also was an advisor to the chairman of the Joint Congressional Committee for Atomic Energy. As his scientific and philosophical views were present in his novels, so were his love of pulp-style serials, and his earliest work influenced the creation of Flash Gordon and later, Watchmen, while at least nine movies were made from his novels and stories, including When Worlds Collide.

Edwin Balmer (1883-1959) was a writer of detective stories and speculative fiction. He was also the editor of Redbook, and later associate publisher. Balmer also collaborated on the comic strip Speed Spaulding, which was based on the co-authored (with Philip Wylie) novel When Worlds Collide.
