SYNOPSIS
A. E. van Vogt: Science Fantasy's Icon ISBN
1-59113-054-9
A. E. van Vogt: Science Fantasy's Icon represents H. L. Drake's on
and off again three-decades long project that included research, interviewing
van Vogt and other SF authors, writing and convention presentations about the
late "golden age of sf" author, A. E. van Vogt. Perspectives are presented
which shed light on how and why van Vogt wrote some of his science fantasies
and nonfiction. "Fix-up" novels were short stories that van Vogt tied together
into long works of fiction. A. E. van Vogt may be thought of as the fix-up
novels King of the Sevagram plane!
