Armchair Fiction presents extra-large editions of classic science fiction double novels with original illustrations. The first novel "Space Rocket Murders" is white-knuckle ride by science fiction master, Edmond Hamilton. Famous scientists were dropping like flies. It was a horrifying situation for the world of science. One by one, the leading researchers in the field of interstellar space flight were being found dead-murdered! But these murders weren't your usual street-style killings with a knife in the back or a bullet in the brain, no¿these noted scientists were all being systematically burned alive-and their homes along with them to make it look more or less "accidental." But when Professor Arthur Melford's uncle became the latest victim, he and a fellow colleague decided to take matters into their own hands. However, their investigations soon led them not to competing scientists, foreign governments, or even mob bosses, but to a nemesis so totally alien, so fantastic, that it put the world on the brink of an interplanetary crisis. Join acclaimed science fiction novelist Edmond Hamilton on a journey into the spirited revelations of a murder investigation and the discovery of an unknown civilization, whose fear of mankind knew no bounds. The second novel is by H. B. Fyfe, "D-99." Rockets slammed past, just missing the tall, gaunt man who dodged down the stairs of the Earth Embassy. A figure loomed in a doorway and he snapped off a quick blaster shot at it-missed. He'd killed one man, wounded others-and was carrying papers stolen from the secret Embassy files. They had to stop him-but they couldn't! And, worlds away, the men of Department 99 watched on their galaxy-spanning view-screen¿all the while knowing they were responsible for this disaster-and powerless to do anything about it!
