Armchair Fiction presents extra large editions of classic science fiction double novels. “This Crowded Earth” is the first novel, penned by the author of “Psycho,” Robert Bloch.

Bloch spins a fine tale as he takes a prophetic look at a very possible world of the future. The second novel is by sci-fi veteran, Daniel F. Galouye. “Reign of the Telepuppets” is a wonderful tale about a robot colony run wild. To the naked eye they appeared to be nothing but a small group of robotic misfits. But the ruling robot, a surly pile of circuits and mechanisms named Bigboss, was sure that their tiny colony was the center of the universe.

It was a fleeting memory of the far-off world from which he came. A world where creatures lived that might actually challenge his rule. Little did he know that a spaceship filled with those creatures was hurtling towards him through the void. Living creatures of flesh and blood…
