Drawn from the pages of Imagination, this substantial Super Pack brings together more than 200,000 words of classic science fiction, fantasy, space adventure, and pulp-era storytelling. While many magazines of the period pursued literary experimentation or increasingly specialised editorial visions, Imagination built its reputation on speed, colour, action, and reader appeal. Its pages offered space voyages, alien worlds, strange inventions, future wars, cosmic mysteries, and high-stakes adventure fiction from writers who knew how to keep a story moving.
This collection gathers a wide-ranging selection of stories from that magazine tradition, including work by Philip K. Dick, Edmond Hamilton, Milton Lesser, Winston Marks, Kris Neville, Daniel F. Galouye, Mack Reynolds, Paul W. Fairman, Alfred Coppel, Charles V. De Vet, and others. From "Mr. Spaceship" and "Piper in the Woods" by Philip K. Dick to Edmond Hamilton's "The Legion of Lazarus" and multiple stories by Milton Lesser, the volume offers a generous single-volume gateway into the adventure-driven side of mid-century science fiction.
Philip K Dick was born in Chicago in 1928 and lived most of his life in California. He attended college for a year at Berkeley. Apart from writing, his main interest was music. He won the Hugo Award for his classic novel of alternative history, ‘The Man in the High Castle’ (1962). He was married five times and had three children. He died in March 1982.
