Millemondiestate 1979: Tre romanzi completi di Alfred E. Van Vogt

by A.E. van Vogt

Tre romanzi d'ambiente radicalmente diverso: uno terrestre e del tempo presente, un altro ancora terrestre ma del lontano futuro, e il terzo lontanissimo sia nel tempo che nell'immenso spazio tra le galassie. Ma in tutti e tre domina lo stesso e inconfondibile genio narrativo di Van Vogt: il prestigioso autore che con Asimov, Clarke, Heinlein, Wyndham, Brown, Sheckley, è stato, per così dire, tra i "padri fondatori" di Urania e della fantascienza d'oggi.

Indice:
La casa senza tempo (The House that Stood Still, 1953)
Il cervello trappola (The Mind Cage, 1958)
Tutto bene a Carson Planet (The War against the Rull, 1960)

About the author

Alfred Elton van Vogt was a Canadian-born science fiction author regarded by some as one of the most popular and complex science fiction writers of the mid-twentieth century—the "Golden Age" of the genre.

van Vogt was born to Russian Mennonite family. Until he was four years old, van Vogt and his family spoke only a dialect of Low German in the home.

He began his writing career with "true story" romances, but then moved to writing science fiction, a field he identified with. His first story was "Black Destroyer", that appeared as the front cover story for the July 1939 edition of the popular Astounding Science Fiction magazine.
