Perhaps best known for editing the popular post-World War II
magazines "Galaxy Science Fiction" and "Beyond Fantasy Fiction,"
Horace L. Gold also wrote comic-book scripts for DC Comics and
penned numerous pulp adventures and science-fiction stories.
"Perfect Murders," a collection of seven of these stories, captures
the timeless emotions evoked by pulp and science fiction for the
twenty-first century. Though the main character is always called
Gilroy, his identity shifts from story to story: the horserace
handicapper fighting for his dame, the private eye sussing out the
murderer, or the hard-boiled journalist exposing the mad scientist.
And though Gold uses the traditional genres--time travel,
Armageddon, science gone awry, murder, extraterrestrials--"Perfect
Murders" is nothing less than a horrific, page-turning, fictional
thrill ride engineered by one of the leading science-fiction
writers and editors of the mid-twentieth century. The Bison Books
edition is introduced by Gold's son, E. J. Gold, offering a new
perspective on these classic stories.
