Alfred Coppel

    9. listopad 1921 – 30. květen 2004

    Tento plodný autor se proslavil jako jeden z hlavních přispěvatelů do pulpových časopisů 50. a 60. let. Ačkoli psal v různých žánrech, jeho největším přínosem je science fiction, kterou ztvárnil jak v povídkách, tak v románech. Jeho styl se vyznačuje akčními prvky, které vycházejí z jeho zkušeností stíhacího pilota. Jeho díla dodnes oslovují čtenáře svou dobrodružnou a podmanivou povahou.
