Armchair Fiction presents extra-large editions of classic science fiction double novels with original illustrations. The first novel is an amazing science fiction tale titled "Beyond Infinity" by Robert S. Carr. Professor Pritchard Leigh had been considered a brilliant scientist until his ill-fated attempt to conquer the speed of light had resulted in a fatal rocket launching. He was then shunned by the scientific community at large. But two elderly world-renowned scholars, Martin and Martha Madison, still had faith in him. Together, at a secret mountain laboratory called "Meteor Mountain," the three of them undertook a project to discover the secret of eternal youth. The plan involved Martha and Martin traveling in a spaceship past Saturn and back again. Their speeds would be in excess of the speed of light. But to correct the problems of his earlier failure, Professor Leigh had to employ the help of a cranky old scientist named Burgess Wood--a man who stilled pined for the lost love of his youth--Martha Madison herself. And as the countdown commenced, Burgess Wood knew that the woman he still loved might be moments away from eternal youth, or a rocket ride to death... The second novel is "Monsters of the Ray" by A. Hyatt Verrill. In the late 1920s and early 1930s, author, explorer, zoologist, and inventor A. Hyatt Verrill was a regular contributor to Experimenter Publication's two science fiction magazines, Amazing Stories and Amazing Stories Quarterly. "Monsters of the Ray," which appeared in the summer 1929 issue of Amazing Stories Quarterly, is considered one of Verrill's best tales and was lauded over by his editor, T. O'Conor Sloane. The story involves two scientists in the wilds of the Andes Mountains who stumble upon an ancient Incan secret--an incredible ray machine that not only can cut through solid rock, but can also serve as a platform to peer into the distant past. Indeed, the incredible climax of "Monsters of the Ray" seems like a ride on a runaway roller coaster that leaves its tracks and heads straight into outer space.
