Murray Leinster: The Complete Masterworks of Science Fiction & Fantasy brings together 60 classic works from one of the true pioneers of speculative fiction. Often called the "Dean of Science Fiction," Murray Leinster (pseudonym of William Fitzgerald Jenkins) was a prolific and visionary writer whose career spanned more than five decades. This illustrated edition celebrates his extraordinary legacy with a definitive collection of groundbreaking stories and novels. Leinster's imaginative range was vast—exploring interstellar travel, parallel universes, first contact, time paradoxes, and technological revolutions long before they became genre staples. From iconic tales like "A Logic Named Joe", which eerily predicted the internet and AI, to thrilling adventures such as "The Forgotten Planet", "The Wailing Asteroid", and "The Mad Planet", his fiction combines scientific foresight with gripping human drama. This volume showcases Leinster's enduring contributions to both science fiction and fantasy, blending hard science with adventure, ethics, and humor. Whether you're a longtime fan or new to his work, this collection is an essential addition to any sci-fi library—a timeless journey through the infinite worlds of one of the genre's founding architects.
