[if you’re new to the Journey, read this to see what we’re all about!]


by Gideon Marcus

Ace Doubles are like an insurance policy for scientifiction readers. Hungry for a decent yarn after a couple of lousy mags? Want something more filling than a short story but that requires less commitment than a novel? Did you miss a serial when it debuted across several issues of an sf digest? Ace Doubles are what the doctor ordered: back-to-back dual publications, attractive in their lurid colors and never too intellectually demanding.

One of 1962's latest, F-161, is a particularly representative example. Highly recommended by fellow Journeyer, John Boston, it kept me smiling throughout December...though not always for the reasons the authors intended...
