Armchair Fiction presents classic science fiction double novels. The first novel, ?The Girl who Loved Death? is an hard-boiled sci-fi thriller by Paul W. Fairman. It was the most baffling set of questions a private eye ever had to answer. And the toughest inquiry of the bunch was: How on earth did a normal-sized girl get shrunk down to a pint-sized beauty? Nick Saturday wasn?t much of a private detective, and he was the first one to admit it. But somehow he ended up getting hired to find a missing woman?a spectacular redhead named Helen Burdette. So?like all good flatfoots?he grabbed a cab and starting combing the streets of the city for her. The problem was that he had the right city and the right street?but the wrong world! The second novel, ?Slave Planet? is an interplanetary adventure by Laurence M. Janifer. It was called Fruyling?s World. It was tremendously rich in the metals that kept the Terran Confederation going?one vital link in a galaxy-wide civilization. But the men of Fruyling?s World lived on borrowed time, knowing that slavery was outlawed throughout the Confederation?and that only the slave labor of the reptilian natives could produce the precious metals the Confederation needed! As the first hints of the truth about Fruyling?s World emerge, the tension becomes unbearable?to be resolved only in the shattering climax of this fast-paced, thought-provoking story from one of yesterday?s most original writers of Science Fiction

A company director follows up on a communications blip in the wastelands that once was the United States and is surprised by what he finds there.

The first novel, “The Man Who Stopped at Nothing” is by veteran sci-fi author and editor, Paul W. Fairman. Caught between life and death — Dorn Lattimore was just your average working Joe taking a break from the wife and kids. Then BAM! He woke to find himself looking through a plate glass window enjoying a luscious nude, who was leisurely picking out her wardrobe from any number of department store mannequins. What followed was a madcap adventure of two soul mates literally trapped in the next level up, the upper plane between life and death. The second novel, “Ten From Infinity,” is another Fairman gem. Something was terribly wrong. It all started innocently enough. A pedestrian was hit by a cab in New York City. No doubt it was the only motor mishap in history with ramifications that reached out to the stars — for at the instant the accident happened, a signal far out in space was registered. Something wasn’t quite right, for the doctors discovered their accident patient had two hearts.
