Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Otis Adelbert Kline: Collected Works gathers the exuberant fiction of a major pulp-era fantasist whose tales range from planetary romance and lost-world adventure to weird menace and Orientalist intrigue. Written in the swift, image-rich idiom of the magazines, these stories privilege momentum, peril, and exotic spectacle while also revealing the early twentieth century's fascination with Mars, Venus, occult science, and heroic individualism. In literary context, Kline stands beside Edgar Rice Burroughs and the Weird Tales circle as a craftsman of escapist mythologies shaped by serialized suspense. Kline (1891-1946) was an American writer, editor, song lyricist, and later literary agent whose varied professional life immersed him in popular entertainment. His association with pulp publishing, especially Weird Tales, sharpened his sense of what mass readers desired: vivid settings, decisive action, and romance under impossible skies. His work reflects both commercial ingenuity and a genuine imaginative investment in speculative frontiers. This collection is recommended for readers interested in the foundations of science fantasy, adventure fiction, and magazine culture. Though marked by period conventions, Kline's narratives remain valuable for their pace, invention, and historical significance, offering a lively map of pulp imagination at full strength.
