| Summary | "Astounding Stories of Super-Science, June, 1930" is a collection of science fiction stories edited by Harry Bates and published during the early 20th century. This magazine showcases imaginative tales of adventure, technology, and speculative science, characteristic of the genre's burgeoning popularity during this period. Each story delves into extraordinary and often fantastical concepts, allowing readers to engage with themes that challenge the boundaries of reality and explore human ingenuity and survival against various otherworldly challenges. The opening portion introduces a gripping narrative titled "Out of the Dreadful Depths" by C. D. Willard, which follows the young adventurer Robert Thorpe. He embarks on an impulsive journey across the Pacific Ocean, betting his friend that he can navigate a small sloop on his own. Shortly into his voyage, he encounters an abandoned ship, the "Minnie R.", and discovers eerie signs of a terrifying force that has claimed the lives of its crew. As Thorpe investigates the abandoned vessel, he unravels a mystery fraught with danger, including strange sightings of an unseen threat, which hints at an underlying horror lurking in the depths of the ocean. This suspenseful opening sets the stage for a thrilling exploration of fear, adventure, and the unknown in the realms of oceanic science fiction. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
