THE PLANET STRAPPERS started out as The Bunch, a group of student-astronauts in the back room of a store in Jarviston, Minnesota. They wanted off Earth, and they begged, borrowed and built what they needed to make it. THE PLANET STRAPPERS got what they wanted -- a start on the road to the stars -- but no one brought up on Earth could have imagined what was waiting for them Out There!

THE PLANET STRAPPERS started out as The Bunch, a group of student-astronauts in the back room of a store in Jarviston, Minnesota. They wanted off Earth, and they begged, borrowed and built what they needed to make it. THE PLANET STRAPPERS got what they wanted-a start on the road to the stars-but no one brought up on Earth could have imagined what was waiting for them Out There! In THE PLANET STRAPPERS, Ray Gallun has written a story of the Day After Tomorrow-a story of what it will be like for the men who cross the space frontier-a story that some of us will be living someday....

“A fairly good time capsule of sf starting to become a genre of its own, and "Amazing Stories" in particular. ,,, for the pulp fiction fan, this will be an interesting and fun read And all of 1926's covers are reprinted on this anthology's back cover.” –Amazon review. 1940 was an important year for Amazing Stories—and for its new editor, Raymond A. Palmer. For Palmer it was the culmination of his dream to create a stable of new science fiction writers for Amazing, the way John W. Campbell Jr. had done two years earlier with such spectacular success at Astounding Stories. Palmer gathered Don Wilcox, Robert Moore Williams, the highly underrated Rog Phillips, David Wright O’Brien, David Vern Reed (of Batman fame), Chester. S. Geier, the Livingston brothers (Herbert and Berkeley), Leroy Yerxa, Frances Deegan, Richard S. Shaver, and others quite popular then but of lesser fame today. He also opened his pages to anything such important authors as Ray Bradbury, Nelson S. Bond, Eando Binder, and Robert Bloch cared to write, 1940 was the year it all came together for Ray Palmer. From then on Amazing Stories’ readership and circulation would continue to grow, even through and after the war, in a triumphal arc. The stories reprinted here, we believe are among the most outstanding Palmer published in Amazing during 1940. Guiding our selections are what we feel are three key signifiers of quality: 1) reader reaction as reflected in the magazine’s letter columns, 2) a story having been deemed worthy of reprint by the field’s most able anthologists, and 3) our own personal reading of all twelve issues published that year. The gem of the year, a novelette which still enjoys classic status today, was undoubtedly “The Voyage that Lasted 600 Years,” the first story ever set on board a ship making a generations-long voyage to a distant star. Once again Amazing was in the lead with a cornerstone sf idea that remains a vital part of the field to this day (beating out Robert A. Heinlein’s “Universe,” which is often misremembered as the first use of a generation starship, by a full year). Also included are Truth Is A Plague David Wright O’Brien The Living Mist Ralph Milne Farley Paul Revere And The Time Machine A. W. Bernal Monster Out Of Space Malcolm Jameson The Day Time Stopped Moving Ed Earl Repp (Writing As Bradner Buckner) The Mathematical Kid Ross Rocklynne The Strange Voyage Of Dr. Penwing Richard O. Lewis The Three Wise Men Of Space Donald Bern Sons Of The Deluge (complete novel) Nelson S. Bond This special 1940 Retro-Hugo edition of The Best of Amazing Stories is not intended to tell World Science Fiction Convention members who or what to vote for (or not to vote for). At the same time it is not possible for most readers to obtain copies of all the science fiction stories and novels published during 1940 or even those classics that might be ranked among the best. Unfortunately, many of the latter are not in print, and those that are are scattered widely among many different anthologies and not easy to assemble. We offer this present book in the hope that it may help contemporary readers become more informed about, at least, some of the better science fiction of the year 1940. Contains a special Introduction and survey of the best stories published in every magazine during the year.
