About this book
After getting his start as a writer of screenplays for silent movies, Homer Eon Flint turned to the then-nascent genre of science fiction, penning a number of influential short stories and novels in the process. Fans of golden-era sci-fi will delight in the pleasures of Flint's imaginative and tightly plotted The Devolutionist and The Emancipatrix.
