H. L. Gold is best known for his tenure as editor of Galaxy Science Fiction one of the most influential science fiction magazines of the 1950's. During that period he was as responsible for shaping the genre as John W. Campbell had been a decade earlier. However, he also was a talented writer, writing dozens of stories beginning in the 30's and continuing on into the 60's. Shunning the super science themes prevalent when he began writing, his characters were more likely to be out of work actors, Jersey shore concessionaires, or race track touts than scientists or space pilots, even if they did deal with alien abductions and time travel. His own writing was as imbued with humor and satire as those authors he cultivated at Galaxy. Resurrected Press is proud to bring you this collection of some of his best works in . . . H. L. Gold Resurrected! Stories include: The Trouble With Water, Love In the Dark, And Three to Get Ready . . ., The Old Die Rich, No Charge For Alterations, At the Post, The Enormous Room

Science fiction-roman.

The chain carried its load to the peak and relinquished it to the force of gravity. The riders had a glimpse of the sprawling amusement park spread out below them like a collection of gaudy toys on the floor of a playroom; then the coaster was roaring and thundering down into the hollow of the first big dip. Everyone but the Negro boy and the tall man yelled. These two looked detached-without emotion-as though they wouldn't have cared if the train of cars went off the tracks. The cars didn't go off the tracks. The people did. One big name per story is usually considered to be sufficient. So when two of them appear in one by-line, it can certainly be called a scoop; so that's what we'll call it. H. L. Gold and science-fiction go together like a blonde and a henna rinse. Robert Krepps is also big time. You may know him also under his other label-Geoff St. Reynard, but a Krepps by any name can write as well.
