Science Fiction Gilmore, Anthony: The Affair Of The Brains. v1, 19 Jan 2010

[Dr. Drib]

This is a science fiction short novel [novella] from the March, 1932 issue of Astounding Stories.

There are a few more stories in this series featuring the same character. I have yet to read this, and I'm not familier with the author's work; however, the author is Harry Bates, famous editor! But it looks like a lot of fun.

See this website for some interesting information on Bates's work and history:

This novel looks like good, old swashbuckling science fiction where ray-guns splat and the aliens are always evil. I've included the cover from which the story appears.

Enjoy.

In the meantime, I've got to get my microwave going: I've got some yowling animals making a ruckus out back, and my ray-gun doesn't seem to be working at the moment.
