Ralf Dale of the Interplanetary Police could scarcely believe it when his girlfriend confessed, “Today, Ralph, I nearly murdered Cranfell, the chief cashier of my department!.” Originally published in Thrilling Wonder Stories in 1945, «Interlink» is a fast-paced science fiction adventure by one of the most prolific and popular British authors of the era.

In this sequel to John Russell Fearn’s classic Liners of Time, Time Liner Pilot Sandford Lee continues his battle against Elnek Jelfel, the Jovian wizard of science intent on galactic domination. Zagribud carries out their contests against an interstellar canvas, with Jelfel using his scientific powers to ultimately take possession of the Earth and carry out mass vivisection on humanity. This is the first unabridged book edition of a classic pre-war serial from the pages of Amazing Stories. It’s a cosmic saga of super-science from a bygone era of science fiction, in the tradition of E. E. 'Doc' Smith!

Three scientists proposed to construct a synthetic man, endowed with some five times the intelligence of the ordinary human being. This creature matures quickly, and eventually there steps into being a synthetic man – «The Intelligence Gigantic.» His intellectuality and his occult powers are impressive, but are backed by no humanity, no thought of the happiness of mankind. He has the desire and the power to control the whole world of humanity and to operate the life of the world on principles of arid mech­anism and absolute slavery… Presenting John Russell Fearn's classic debut novel, together with an early novelette «Climatica,» both of which introduced new concepts to science fiction, including superhuman intelligence and weather control! John Russell Fearn (1908-1960) is noted for such grandly extravagant science fiction as «The Intelligence Gigantic,» «The Liners of Time,» «Mathematica,» and the Golden Amazon series. He was so popular in his day that one of his pseudonyms became the editor of VARGO STATEN'S SCIENCE FICTION MAGAZINE in the 1950s. His work is noted for its vigor amd wild imagination. He has always had a substantial cult following and has been popular in translation around the world.

Nick Hansley and his young wife and father-in-law soon find that The Cedars, the isolated country house Ena has inherited, has more than just a sinister appearance – it radiates a positively evil aura. Soon after moving in, they are visited by a strange figure of a man – Dr. Lexton, their nearest neighbour, who tries to persuade them to sell the house to him. But who is Dr. Lexton, and what was the nature of the secret experiment that Ena.'’s deceased uncle, entomologist Cyrus Odder, had carried out at the house? It is not long before there is a mysterious death in the house, and then death spreads its net across the countryside – and the entire world…

Baffling robberies from locked rooms, cunning crimes and mysterious murders…these were all part of the stock-in-trade of Miss Victoria Lincoln, private detective. Called in to investigate the case of the Haunted Gallery, she had occasion to call on the help of Caroline Gerrard, a pupil at her old College. Impressed, she invited the girl to become her assistant after she left College. Thereafter Caroline assisted the detective in a series of bizarre cases that had baffled the police and appeared insoluble – until Victoria Lincoln got to work!

BLURB

BEFORE EARTH CAME launches a new series collecting the early pioneering pulp magazine novelettes of John Russell Fearn, with the first-ever reprinting of «Before Earth Came» and «Subconscious.» Both stories abound with unbridled imagination and a sense of wonder, examples of the pioneering stories being written in SF more than 80 years ago. In «Before Earth Came,» Fearn’s storyline of how alien scientists, facing the imminent utter destruction of their planet, seek to preserve their heritage by sending it to Earth, was later copied by the creators of Superman. And «Subconscious» was one of the very first SF stories to utilize the theory of Charles Fort that «We are Property!» … a theme that has echoed down science fiction ever since!

Gyron de London, most powerful–and most hated–industrialist of the year 2190, is warned by a mysterious letter that his doom is due on the 30th March, three weeks hence. Further anonymous letters repeat the message. The frightened tycoon takes every precaution, even to sealing himself in a steel, radiation-proof cube surrounded by armed guards – but death overtakes him on the specified day, exactly as forecast! Since no one had entered the cube after the industrialist was seen to enter it alive, the police conclude that his death was from natural causes. Famed scientific investigator Adam Quirke is called in by the unsatisfied family, and discovers that de London was the victim of a highly scientific murder. An impossible crime mystery set in the future!

Jeffrey Collins’s fate was sealed when he stopped his car to help a man who appeared to be an injured motorcyclist. When the injured man vanished before his eyes, Collins turned to a scientist, Dr. Whittaker, to make sense of the mystery. But when Whittaker was found dead, a victim of poisoning, Collins was accused of his murder. The evidence against him was damning. Where had he been during the period when Dr. Whittaker had died? Had he not quarrelled with him, and had they not both stood to make a fortune from some kind of formula? Unable to explain, Collins was found guilty, and so began an astounding odyssey of space, time, and destiny.
