His works include The Radio Man and its numerous sequels, chiefly interplanetary and inner-world adventure yarns in the tradition of Edgar Rice Burroughs, with whom he was friends. In this book: The Radio Planet The Radio Man The Danger from the Deep

THE RADIO PLANET When Myles Cabot, inventor of radio transmission of matter, returned to Venus he found himself alone on an unknown continent on that alien planet. To get back to his old headquarters and his loved ones presented some apparently impossible problems. He'd have to settle a war between the near-primitive natives and an unholy alliance of monsters, dinosaurs, and giant insects. He'd have to build an electronic device from raw rocks and untapped resources. And if he could succeed in all that, he'd still have to find his way home and fight off a usurper's diabolic conspiracy. But Myles Cabot didn't know the meaning of the word impossible!

Armchair Fiction presents a special illustrated edition of Ralph Milne Farley's science fiction adventure classic, "An Earthman on Venus," complete with original Frank R. Paul illustrations and more. It's high adventure and strange romance on a planet of mystery. When Myles Cabot accidentally transmitted himself to our distant neighbor in the sky, Venus, he found himself naked and bewildered on a fantastic world where every unguarded minute could result in a horrible death. Man-eating plants, tiger-sized spiders, and dictatorial ant-men kept Myles on the run until he discovered the secret of this strange world-humanity was a slave-race and monstrous ants were the real rulers of the planet! But Cabot was resourceful, and when his newfound love, the beautiful Princess Lilla, called for help, the ant-men learned what an angry Earthman could do. "An Earthman on Venus" is epic science fiction, packed with the excitement of Edgar Rice Burroughs and the scientific vision of H. G. Wells. You won't be able to put it down once you begin turning the pages.

Armchair Fiction presents extra large editions of classic science fiction double novels. The first novel "Danger Moon" is another engaging and highly entertaining tale from a master of science fiction, the late, great Frederik Pohl. Steve Templin had worked as a professional trouble-shooter for years, but now he wanted something different in his life. It wasn't going to be easy, though, and it certainly wasn't going to be cheap. And when Ellen Bishop, owner of Terralune Projects, asked for his help, he agreed... for a price. Something strange was happening to her father's Lunar mining firm and she needed someone like Templin to get to the bottom of it. As he weighed into the situation, he discovered a web of sabotage, greed, and murder-and soon after, the remains of an ancient alien race. The second novel is "The Hidden Universe" by the man who gave us "The Radio Planet," Ralph Milne Farley. Bob Cathcart was happy when his brother, Johnny, had landed a job with the gigantic Frain Corporation. Johnny had signed on and was shipped off to one of Malcolm Frain's secret industrial colonies. But that had been six months earlier, and that was the last time Bob Cathcart had seen or heard from his brother. So with his career as a chemical researcher going nowhere, Bob decided to take a job as a truck driver for the Frain Corporation, partially in hope of finding out what had happened to his missing brother. Like his brother before him, he was also shipped out to one of Malcolm Frain's secret colonies. But after his arrival, it didn't take Bob Cathcart long to discover that the colony he had come to was like no place he had ever seen. In fact, he soon came to the grim realization that this colony might not even be located on Earth!
