Mention the words “space fiction” and any young boy or girl is certain to think of Patrick Moore and Angus MacVicar. These two authors – known for both their writing and their work on television and sound radio – are at the top of the list.
What more could any young reader of the Space Age hope for than two stories by these popular authors, combined into one volume?
The two stories show a variation in style and subject matter which throws each into relief and benefits both. There is no attempt to take flight into the realms of complete unreality. Both stories are within the scope of scientific possibility and the details given are authentic.
This then is a “dual” volume for any avid reader who has a taste for fast-moving adventure and vivid astronautics. |
