Robert’s comments from the New Worlds November group.

You are right! It is the same story, but with a lot more content. Campbell's original was found with 45 extra pages and now it has been published with those pages. They published it with the title Frozen Hell. I will get that as soon as I can!

I just finished "Who Goes There?" by John W. Campbell, and I highly recommend it. It is the novella (75 pages) that inspired the films "The Thing from Another World (1951)" and John Carpenter's "The Thing (1982). Such a great story! it is actually Sci-fi horror and I recommend it to fans of either genre. it is quite accessible as well. If you want a list of where to find it you can message me here on Goodreads.

This is a great list, Mindy! I agree with everything...except Ready Player One. oh my how I hated that book. lol!! I am in the minority with that, though.
Thank you so much, Mindy!!
