Lakewood, CO, Centipede Press, 2012. Limited Edition. Hardback. A very good copy. 121 of 200 copies. Signed by illustrator Gwabryel and Ed Gorman who provides the introduction. Folds of jacket rubbed a little, a few spots to the top edge. Some toning to the signature leaf margin. Fredric Brown (1906-1972) was an American science fiction and mystery writer. He is perhaps best known for his use of humor and for his mastery of the short short form ? stories of 1 to 3 pages, often with ingenious plotting devices and surprise endings. Humor and a somewhat postmodern outlook carried over into his novels as well. His classic science fiction novel What Mad Universe (1949) is a parody of pulp SF story conventions.
