    BULLETIN TRIMESTRIEL D'INFORMATIONS DU CENTRE DE DOCUMENTATION DE L'ETRANGE; septembre 1990, Numéro 3 (17e année); C/o B. GOORDEN; BP33 - Uccle 4; 1180 Bruxelles (Abonnement annuel: 9 timbres à 14 FB ou 2,30 FF ou 5 C.R.I.) I) INFORMATIONS BELGES. 1) Les Editions DUCULOT (65 avenue de Lauzelle à 1348 Louvain-la-Neuve) lancent une nouvelle collection, "Les Authentiques", "donnant accès à la grande littérature d'aventures pour les jeunes adultes". Le premier titre est L'Ile au trésor ("The Sea Cook") de Robert Louis STEVENSON, roman d'aventures classique s'il en est, qui bénéficie ici d'une nouvelle traduction, intégrale, due à Geneviève PIROTTE, d'une présentation extrêmement soignée, et des superbes illustrations en quadrichromie de Newell Convers WYETH (1882-1945), reproduites d'après ses originaux pour l'édition Scribners à New York en 1911. Un magnifique travail de reconstitution, qui ne peut qu'inciter tout lecteur à un retour aux sources de sa passion littéraire et poussera le bibliophile à remplacer l'édition de sa bibliothèque par celle-ci. Un volume 18 X 23,5 cm de 274 pages pour une somme, finalement modique, de 580 FB. Il est à noter que paraîtra sous peu La Légende de la vallée somnifère de W.IRVING, titre qui devrait plus particulièrement allécher les amateurs de fantastique. Les mêmes éditions, rappelons-le, ont vu le roman Le Pic des ténèbres de Roger LELOUP (déjà renommé pour ses récits de SF en BD) couronné par le "Grand Prix de la SF française" (section jeunesse). Dans la même collection "Travelling", elles publient notamment d'autres auteurs belges, en l'occurrence L.

  • Supermind Garrett, Randall
    Supermind Garrett, Randall Published: 1963 Categorie(s): Fiction, Science Fiction Source: http://gutenberg.org 1 About Garrett: Randall Garrett (December 16, 1927 - December 31, 1987) was an American science fiction and fantasy author. He was a prolific contributor to Astounding and other science fiction magazines of the 1950s and 1960s. He instructed Robert Sil- verberg in the techniques of selling large quantities of action- adventure sf, and collaborated with him on two novels about Earth bringing civilization to an alien planet. Source: Wikipedia Also available on Feedbooks for Garrett: • Pagan Passions (1959) • Brain Twister (1961) • Quest of the Golden Ape (1957) • Psichopath (1960) • Unwise Child (1962) • ...After a Few Words... (1962) • The Impossibles (1963) • The Highest Treason (1961) • Anything You Can Do ... (1963) • A Spaceship Named McGuire (1961) About Janifer: Laurence M. Janifer (March 17, 1933- July 10, 2002) was a prolific science fiction author, with a career spanning over 50 years. Janifer was born in Brooklyn, New York with the sur- name of Harris, but in 1963 took the original surname of his Polish grandfather. "An Immigration officer had saddled Harris on my father's father," wrote Janifer, "and I'd rather be named for where I come from than for an Immigration officer's odd whim." He was married four times and was survived by three children. Though his first published work was a short story in Cosmos magazine in 1953, his career as a writer can be said to have started in 1959 when he began writing for Astounding and Galaxy Science Fiction. He co-wrote the first novel in the "Psi-Power" series: Brain Twister, written with Randall Garrett under the joint pseudonym Mark Phillips.

  • Shadow on the Stars by Robert Silverberg
    Introduction to Shadow on the Stars plus two sample chapters by Robert Silverberg SHADOW ON THE STARS Copyright © 1958, 1986 by Agberg, Ltd. ISBN 0-9671783-7-1 FoxAcre Press 401 Ethan Allen Avenue Takoma Park, Maryland 20912 www.foxacre.com SHADOW ON THE STARS Introduction Unless I have lost count, which is entirely possible, Shadow on the Stars was my sixth novel—which makes it a very early work even among my early work; because in the far-off days of the 1950’s I was writing a novel every few months, and I had a couple of dozen of the things on my record before I sprouted my first gray hair. Beyond any doubt my first book was the juvenile novel, Revolt on Alpha C, which I wrote in 1954 when I was still practically a juvenile myself. Then came another juvenile, Starman’s Quest, in 1956, and later that year my first os- tensibly adult novel, The Thirteenth Immortal and in early 1957 the quite respectable novel Master of Life and Death— which probably ought to be given another turn in print one of these days. A few months later I wrote Invaders from Earth, another early book that causes me no embarrass- ment today. That’s five, and so Shadow on the Stars, writ- ten in October of 1957, would be the sixth. Of course, there were also the two “Robert Randall” collaborations with Randall Garrett, The Shrouded Planet and The Dawning of Light, in 1955 and 1956, but those weren’t solo jobs. And there were a couple of items like the pseudonymous Lest We Forget Thee, O Earth (1957) and Invisible Barriers (1957) that were patched together out of previously published magazine pieces, but they weren’t originally conceived as full-length novels, and I don’t feel like counting them, and I hope you’ll be willing to ignore them too.

  • Science Fiction Book Club Interview with Robert Silverberg (October 2019)
    Science Fiction Book Club Interview with Robert Silverberg (October 2019) Robert Silverberg is a many-time winner of the Hugo and Nebula awards, was named to the Science Fiction Hall of Fame in 1999, and in 2004 was designated as a Grand Master by the Science Fiction Writers of America. His books and stories have been translated into forty languages. Among his best known titles are Nightwings, Dying Inside, the Book of Skulls, and the three volumes of the Majipoor Cycle: Lord Valentine’s Castle, Majipoor Chronicles, and Valentine Pontifex. Andrew ten Broek: Do you read stories through another eye when you're in the role of the editor, than when you would when you go through your own story or that of a befriended author? As an editor, I looked for stories that I wish I had written myself. Those were easy choices. Even easier to buy were stories that I wish I COULD have written, but probably wasn’t capable of doing. Mike Garber: A few brief comments on Tower of Glass, please. I don’t have anything specific to say. I wrote that novel about fifty years ago and what I remember is mainly that I liked it while I was doing it. Alan Ziebarth: When did you start reading science fiction? And who were your favorite science fiction authors when you began reading science fiction? I first encountered science fiction about 1946, with TWENTY THOUSAND LEAGUES UNDER THE SEA and THE TIME MACHINE. I discovered the s-f magazines in 1948. My early favorite writers were Henry Kuttner (especially under his Lewis Padgett pseudonym), A.E.

  • Lee Gold's Filk History
    by Lee Gold, Copyright March, 1997 This essay originally appeared in the ConChord 12 Songbook. I found organized SF fandom in 1967 at Westercon XX. Filksinging was a two hour afternoon program item, with Bruce Pelz and Ted Johnstone singing out of Pelz's FILKSONG MANUALS (recently republished in a one-volume version, $13 including shipping and handling; Also available from Lee Gold. Bruce and Ted sat at a table in the front of the room, with Ted playing guitar. They chose what songs to sing, and audience members sang along if they felt like it. There were songs from John Myers Myers' Silverlock set to music and "The Orcs Marching Song" to the tune of "The Ballad of Jesse James" and Tom Digby's "Little Teeny Eyes" about a very strange computer -- and many, many others. A month later I attended my first LASFS meeting with copies for sale of THE THIRD FOUNDATION #76 (the fanzine's first issue), containing my first filksong: "Oh, What a Beautiful Martian." One of the LASFSians who sang it that night was a fellow named Barry Gold, whom I married two years later. In turn, I bought Pelz's first three Filksong Manuals (published for the 1965, 1966 and 1967 Westercons). A couple of years later, I bought his fourth Filksong Manual -- and also an old fanzine, THE STF & FSY SONGBOOK, edited by Hal Shapiro, dated 2060 (which Pelz informed me had been brought out for the 1960 Worldcon). A few years after that, Ted Johnstone sold me a copy of WEST BY ONE AND BY ONE, an anthology of Baker Street Irregular pieces published by Poul Anderson in 1961.

  • Baycon Hugo Awards Ceremony Transcription, Cleaned Version [Note: Baycon, the 1968 Worldcon, Had Its Entire Program Taped by KPFA
    Baycon Hugo Awards Ceremony Transcription, cleaned version [Note: Baycon, the 1968 Worldcon, had its entire program taped by KPFA. As far as I know, the tapes are lost. However, Alva Rogers had a transcript made for a planned Proceedings of Baycon of the Hugo Awards Ceremony. It’s a bit of a mess. This is cleaned up as much as I can do so, guessing in many cases about who was being referred to under the various spellings of names, and interpolating Alva’s handwritten corrections when they make sense. I’ve also had to guess about when various people started and stopped speaking. It’s been easier to retype the whole thing than try to get an OCR system to deal with it. Punctuation is, as always with a transcript from a recording, a guess – I’ve done my best to make it cleaner for the text as something to read. I have not, however, tried to change what people said 47 years ago. This is a document of our history. Anything said then probably wouldn’t be said the same way now. Some other documents from the proposed Proceedings exist, but not many; after we get this cleaned up, I may publish some of them in the same way. Tom Whitmore, cleaner] ROBERT SILVERBERG (Toastmaster): Forgive me for beginning the festivities on a solemn note, but I think I should explain what I’m doing up here, as I’m not the Toastmaster who was chosen for this a year ago when Alva, Ben and Bill made their convention bid.
