1 "It's a planet," I said. "A little world." "How little?" Venza demanded. "One-fifth the mass of the Moon. That's what they've calculated now." "And how far is it away?" Anita asked. "I heard a newscaster say yesterday...." "Newscasters!" Venza broke in scornfully. "Say, you can take what they tell you about any danger or trouble and cut it in half; and even then you'll be on the gloomy side. See here, Gregg Haljan." "I'm not giving you newscasters' blare," I retorted. Venza's extravagant vehemence was always refreshing. The Venus girl glared at me. I added:"Anita mentioned newscasters; I didn't." Anita was in no mood for smiling. "Tell us, Gregg." She sat upright and tense, her chin cupped in her hands. "Tell us." "For a fact, they don't know much about it yet. You can call it a planet, a wanderer." "I should say it was a wanderer!" Venza exclaimed. "Coming from heaven knows where beyond the stars, swimming in here like a comet." "They calculated its distance yesterday at some sixty-five million miles from Earth," I said. "It isn't so far beyond the orbit of Mars, coming diagonally and heading very nearly for the Sun. But it's not a comet." The thing was indeed inexplicable; for many weeks now, astronomers had been studying it. This was early summer of the year 2070 A.D. All of us had recently returned from those extraordinary events I have already recounted, when we came close to losing Johnny Grantline's radiactum treasure on the Moon, and our lives as well. My ship, the Planetara, in the astronomical seasons when the Earth, Mars, and Venus were within comfortable traveling distances of each other, had carried mail and passengers from Greater New York to Ferrok-Shahn, of the Martian Union, and to Grebhar, of the Venus Free State. Now it was wrecked on the Moon.

Cummings' storytelling prowess is on full display as he weaves a narrative rich with wonder, embracing the vintage tapestry of early science fiction.

Raymond King Cummings has secured his place in the constellation of classic science fiction authors. His writing, often informed by the rapid technological advances and scientific curiosities of his time, reflects a deep fascination with the 'what-ifs' that underpin the genre. As a contemporary of H.G. Wells and a contributor to the pulp magazines that birthed modern science fiction, Cummings' own experiences and insights channel through the pages of 'Wandl,' instilling it with both the escapism and reflective cautionary themes of an era upon the precipice of the unknown.

A CLASSIC NOVEL OF INTERPLANETARY WARFARE There were nine major planets in the Solar System and it was within their boundaries that man first set up interplanetary commerce and began trading with the ancient Martian civilization. And then they discovered a tenth planet -- a maverick This tenth world, if it had an orbit, had a strange one, for it was heading inwards from interstellar space, heading close to the Earth-Mars spaceways, upsetting astronautic calculations and raising turmoil on the two inhabited worlds. But even so none suspected then just how much trouble this new world would make. For it was Wandl the Invader and it was no barren planetoid. It was a manned world, manned by minds and monsters and traveling into our system with a purpose beyond that of astronomical accident It's a terrific novel from the classic days of great science-fiction adventure -- now first published in book form. When Ray Cummings took leave of this planet early in 1957, the world of modern science-fiction lost one of its genuine founding fathers. For the imagination of this talented writer supplied a great many of the most basic themes upon which the present superstructure of science-fiction is based. Following the lead of Jules Verne and H.G. Wells, Cummings successfully bridged the gap between the early dawning of science-fiction in the last decades of the Nineteenth Century and the full flowering of the field in these middle decades of the Twentieth. * Born in 1887, Cummings acquired insight into the vast possibilities of future science by a personal association with Thomas Alva Edison. During the 1920s and 1930s, he thrilled millions of readers with his vivid tales of spaceand time. The infinite and the infinitesimal were all parts of his canvas, and past, present, and future, the interplanetary and the extra-dimensional, all made their initial impact on the reading public through his many stories and novels.

In "An Artshop in Greenwich Village" by Ray Cummings, readers are transported to the heart of 1920s New York City, a time pulsating with artistic innovation and cultural upheaval. The protagonist, an aspiring painter named Jane, navigates her way through the vibrant yet challenging world of Greenwich Village's bohemian community. The shop she inherits becomes a microcosm for the era's broader social dynamics, offering a haven for artists while reflecting societal changes such as women's increasing autonomy and the struggle between commercial success and artistic integrity. Themes of self-discovery, societal transformation, and the clash between tradition and modernity are at the book's core. Jane's journey mirrors the experiences of many contemporary creatives who grapple with maintaining authenticity in a commercially driven world. The narrative underscores the timeless struggle to balance personal dreams with societal expectations, a resonant issue in today's gig economy where many fight to preserve their passions amidst financial instability. Cummings' portrayal of a collaborative yet competitive artistic enclave speaks to current trends in social media culture, where artists seek both community and individual recognition. Greenwich Village's inclusivity, hosting marginalized voices and fostering dialogues around gender and identity, parallels today's movements advocating for diversity and representation in the arts and beyond. By capturing the spirit of a transformative era, "An Artshop in Greenwich Village" provides valuable insights into the ongoing conversations about artistic freedom, societal roles, and the pursuit of one's true self. This novel not only offers a historical snapshot but also connects with present-day readers grappling with similar issues, making it profoundly relevant in its examination of human creativity and resilience.
