Acerca de este libro electrónico
The Space Station floated up out of the Big Dark. Lieutenant Corriston had come to see its marvels, but he soon found himself trapped in unexpected terrors. The grim reality was that an unknown, unsuspected outer space power had usurped control of the artificial moon. A beautiful woman had disappeared; passengers were being fleeced and enslaved; and, using fantastic disguises, imposters from - SOMEWHERE - were using the station for their own mysterious ends.

Acerca del autor
Frank Belknap Long (1901-1994) was a prolific American writer whose career spanned over seven decades, making significant contributions to the genres of horror, science fiction, and fantasy. Born in New York City, Long was a contemporary and close friend of H.P. Lovecraft, and he became an integral part of the Lovecraft Circle, a group of writers who corresponded with and influenced each other.Long's work is characterized by his imaginative storytelling and his ability to blend the macabre with the cosmic, often exploring themes of existential dread and the unknown. His notable contributions include the creation of the "Hounds of Tindalos," a terrifying addition to the Cthulhu Mythos, which has left a lasting impact on horror literature.Despite his literary achievements, Long's career was not without controversy. He faced criticism for his commercial approach to writing, often producing work that some felt pandered to pulp magazine audiences. However, this did not diminish his influence; his stories inspired a generation of writers, including Stephen King and Ramsey Campbell, who have acknowledged Long's impact on their own work.Long was also a pioneer in championing the legitimacy of genre fiction, arguing that science fiction and horror deserved the same respect as traditional literature. His advocacy helped pave the way for the broader acceptance of these genres in mainstream literary circles.In his later years, Long continued to write and publish, maintaining a presence in the literary world until his death. His legacy endures through his contributions to the horror and science fiction genres, his influence on subsequent writers, and his role in the evolution of genre fiction.
