A propos de cet article

The format is approximately 4.25 inches by 7 inches. 157, [1] pages. Decorative front cover. The cover has some wear and soiling. Kurt Mahr was the pen name of Klaus Mahn (Klaus Otto Mahn), a German science fiction writer famous for his contributions to the Perry Rhodan franchise. Guest Editorial by James Russell III. The first 126 novels (plus five novels of the spinoff series Atlan) were translated into English and published by Ace Books between 1969 and 1978, with the same translations used for the British edition published by Futura Publications which issued only 39 novels. When Ace canceled its translation of the series, translator Wendayne Ackerman self-published the following 19 novels (under the business name 'Master Publications') and made them available by subscription only. Disputes with the German publishers led to the cancellation of the American translation in 1979. Perry Rhodan is a German space opera franchise, named after its hero. It commenced in 1961 and has been ongoing for decades, written by an ever-changing team of authors. It is perhaps the most successful science fiction book series ever written. The series has spun off into comic books, audio dramas, video games and the like. A reboot, Perry Rhodan NEO, was launched in 2011 and began publication in English in April 2021. Derived from a 2005 review found on-line and posted by Bruce Gray: While book # 23 of this Space Opera is a stand alone story, it also continues the first huge story arc, which began in book # 21 "The Cosmic Decoy", and concludes in Book # 41, "The Earth Dies". These mega-stories are called "bands" in the original German. This band deals with the first true encounter between the fledgling fleet of Terra and the might of the galactic empire. Cadet Tifflor, who escaped from the Springers in "episode" # 22, now faces even more peril. Rhodan sends the mouse-beaver, Pucky, to "Snowball" - the icy planet where Tifflor and what remains of his crew are awaiting rescue. Pucky has his usual brand of 'fun' with the Springer ships looking for Tifflor - with the expected result of the Springers moving away from the ice bound world. Tifflor and his band of mostly cadets of the Space Academy must remain behind on Snowball as a sort of rear guard. Pucky remains behind as well, just in case the Springers get the bright idea to return while the Terranian fleet is off on another mission. Rhodan learns why the Springer agents are undetectable to his Mutant Corps - they are robots! This book contains another editorial, another science fiction movie section, and another letters column. There are also extra stories - one continuing adventure, similar to a serial, and some "Shock Shorts" - continuing a series of SF short stories at the end of each book. Although these stories have nothing to do with Perry Rhodan, they are worth looking at.…
