John Russell Fearn (1908-1960) was an extremely prolific and popular British writer, who began in the American pulps, then almost single-handedly drove the post-World War II boom in British publishing with a flood of science fiction, detective stories, westerns, and adventure fiction. He employed numerous pseudonyms, such as Vargo Statten, Volstead Gridban, Hugo Blayn, Thorton Ayre, Polton Cross, Geoffrey Armstrong, Dennis Clive, John Cotton, Ephriam Winiki, Spike Gordon, and many others. He is noted for such grandly extravagant science fiction as _The Intelligence Gigantic_ and _The Liners of Time, _ "Mathematica," and the Golden Amazon series. He was so popular that one of his pseudonyms became the editor of VARGO STATEN'S SCIENCE FICTION MAGAZINE in the 1950's. His work is noted for its vigor amd wild imagination. He has always had a substantial cult following and has been popular in translation around the world.
In the depths of the Milky Way, the Cosmic Crusaders encounter yet another mysterious planet-this time a world that appears to be a duplicate of Earth, birthplace of the Golden Amazon Their investigations uncover a sinister plot by an alien race, the Denafrone, whose machinations also threaten the Amazon's home world. The Denafrone have also enslaved another peaceful race, turning their planet into a scientific devil's workshop. To smash the Denafrone and save the Earth will take every resource the Crusaders possess Another thrilling interstellar episode in the ongoing Saga of the Golden Amazon
At first, it appeared to be a sun, forming in space where none had existed before. It kindled as an atomic fire, sustaining itself by the breakdown of fusion energies. Then, even as the Cosmic Crusaders watched, the newly-created sun was no longer just a ball of fire: it was gyrating, like a stupendous Catherine Wheel, a flaming mss spewing filaments from its edges. Then they realized the amazing truth: they were witnessing the creation of planets, flaming streamers of incandescent matter that would condense into worlds In this latest full-length novel, the Golden Amazon and her fellow Crusaders grapple with the very forces of creation in their most astounding adventure to date
The Cosmic Crusaders discover a planet whose people are subject to a baleful influence from outer space that sweeps across their world once a month, affecting every man, woman, and child. It stirs the emotions of the sexes against each other: men want only to destroy women, and women men. Only those with higher types of mind can resist the mental attack--the less fortunate are left dead or maimed after the Wave has passed. But when the Crusaders identify and destroy the apparent source of the problem on a nearby planet, they inadvertently precipitate an even greater menace. Can this new threat somehow be overcome? The eleventh exciting space adventure of the Golden Amazon and her companions
The Cosmic Crusaders find themselves on a truly strange world--a misfit planet that seems mysteriously cursed. Instead of evolving naturally from birth to death, it's a world out of step with the universe, leaping ahead into the future at unexpected moments. With each 50-year "step," much of the population dies, and the young replace them as middle-aged individuals. The Crusaders are suspicious that the adviser to the planet ruler is actually an alien from another world, and is causing the constant time dislocations for nefarious purposes. But when he traps the Golden Amazon and her three companions, sending their spaceship crashing onto a neighboring world dominated by huge, dinosaur-like creatures, the Crusaders appear to have met their match. Another stirring sci-fi adventure by a master storyteller

Their first mission takes them to the strange worlds of the two suns, Alpha and Proxima Centauri. Here the Amazon encounters Mizanu, the embodiment of evil, and her most deadly foe yet--for the creature is nothing less than a planet-sized, hypertrophied brain Not even Abna, the master of metaphysics, can withstand its baleful, crushing mental power. Mizanu threatens to reach out beyond the Alpha-Proxima Centauri system to engulf the Earth and all the other inhabited planets of the universe--unless the Golden Amazon can destroy it first The eighth exciting adventure in this ongoing saga
To the peoples of Earth, it had seemed the perfect marriage when Violet Ray Brant--better known as The Golden Amazon--and Abna of Atlantis were wed in Westminster Abbey. But it was nothing of the kind, and before long Abna found himself betrayed and marooned on a satellite of Jupiter, while the Amazon's spaceship had been sent hurtling far beyond the solar system in reprisal. Taking advantage of the absence of Earth's greatest protectors, master scientist Sefner Quorne, another survivor of the Atlanteans, steps in and takes hypnotic control of the planet using ten disembodied brains linked together in a gigantic computer. The human race seems doomed to eternal scientific slavery...unless the TRIANGLE OF POWER can somehow be re-established Another gripping SF adventure from the pulp era.
Something is wrong in England. In and around the London area, people are suddenly becoming bad-tempered, with a rapid increase in crime and murder, and a clear decline in self-respect. Linked to this strange behavior is an excavation site, now a mighty smoking crater emitting clouds of noxious gas that appear to be causing the sudden change in human behavior. And then, from within the vast fissure below the crater, there emerge the hideous survivals of a lost age of monster dinosaurs. It's up to Cliff Brooks, project engineer, to develop a mighty boring capsule capable of penetrating deep within the earth, where he hopes to close off the source of the gas. But when an accident disables his machine a thousand miles from any source of help, only Herbert the Dinosaur can save day A rollicking good SF adventure tale, the first in a two-book series.
The sun is dying. Astronomers can see that the Earth will soon become a frozen planet.

Mankind is forced to retreat underground, there to try surviving in vast underground habitats--trapped in a World Beneath Ice. Only one person on Earth has the scientific knowledge to rekindle the sun--the incredible Golden Amazon, a woman changed by surgery and genetic engineering into a superwoman.
