Ray Cummings: Beyond the Vanishing Point (eBook)

Beyond the Vanishing Point (eBook)

They opened the Pandora`s box of Atomic Travel

 

When George Randolph first caught sight of Orena, he was astounded by its gleaming perfection. Here were hills and valleys, lakes and streams, glowing with the light of the most precious of metals. And, more astonishing than that, it was a world of miniature perfection  -  an infinitely tiny universe within agolden atom! But for Randolph it was also a world aglow with danger. Somewhere in its tiny vastness were the friends he had to rescue. Captives of a madman, they had been reduced to native Orena size; to return to Earth they needed the growth capsules Randolph was bringing them. It was up to Randolph to find them  -  and quickly  -  for the longer they stayed tiny, the closer they came to passing Beyond The Vanishing Point.

 

Ray Cummings was a name to be reckoned with during the early years of science fiction.  He popularized the concept of  "worlds within worlds" and his story "The Girl in the Golden Atom" remains a classic of that type even today.  Although Cummings went to that well a number times he produced a large body of work (over 750 stories) for the pulps in the science fiction, mystery, and weird fields.  In his early life he worked oil wells and mines in the Western U. S. and Canada before becoming an editor for some of Thomas Edison's publications.

 

Beyond the Vanishing Point was first published as a short novel, a dozen years after he wrote The Girl in the Golden Atom.
