Sundays certainly come round quickly each week which is fine by me because it gives me a valid excuse to delve into my Badger book collection for another title to enjoy. This weekend’s volume is another by John E. Muller, better known as the trio of R. L. Fanthorpe, John S. Glasby and A. A. Glynn and carries the following tagline;
The man they had rejected came back to rule the new nuclear age
The cover features one of Badger’s trademark ‘floating faces’ which appears open mouthed and furrowed of brow materialising out of the clouds, hovering menacingly above a futuristic domed city.
Righto, that’s enough typing as I’m itching to get between the covers and find out where this story leads me. I’ll be back next weekend with another gem from the Badger vaults.
Reactor XK9 by John E. Muller
(Serial Number SF96)
This version was published in 1963 by Badger Books

I wonder if the story will reveal the secrets of those floating red crucifixes!

You’re not actually READING these are you?! No wonder you’re sometimes not quite yourself! I actually used to buy these new when they came out, and yes I did read them, but I surely couldn’t now 🙂 I don’t know whether to admire you or pity you 🙂 🙂
