Pulp stories might not be the first thing to cross your mind when thinking of L Ron Hubbard, and Galaxy Press has set out to set the record straight. In reality, Hubbard was insanely prolific during the “golden age” both of pulp fiction and radio, and in a massive project Galaxy Press is dramatizing the best of Hubbard’s 1930s and 1940s pulp fiction in a project called Stories from the Golden Age by L Ron Hubbard.
This collection, which will ultimately feature a whopping 80 titles, spans just about every genre you can imagine, such as mystery, action/adventure, war stories, maritime adventure, fantasy and oh yeah, plenty of science fiction.
It’s the sci-fi you get a taste of today, with the first half of an unsettling story of a man confronted with a fearsome, unknown beast (sort of a spiritual predecessor of Predator).
