Bio: Murray Leinster, whose real name is Will F. Jenkins, has been
entertaining the public with his exciting fiction for several decades.
Called the dean of modern science-fiction, he was writing these amazing
super-science adventures back in the early 1920s before there ever
was such a thing as an all-fantasy magazine. His short stories,
novelettes, and serial novels have appeared in most of the major
American magazines, both slick and pulp, and many have been reprinted
all over the world. He has made a distinguished name for himself (or
rather two names) in the fields of adventure, historical, western, sea,
and suspense stories.
