Despre această carte electronică

Two novelettes about madmen who want to conquer the world. The Beetle Horde was the cover story for the initial issue of Astounding Stories in January 1930. The Invisible Death was the cover story for Astounding Stories in the October 1930 issue. Both stories were about the revenge that spurned egotistical men will wreak upon the world when they don’t get their ways. Both stories reveal weak men in positions of advantage as the aspiring autocrats of their fantasies.
