Book excerpt: Armchair fiction presents extra large editions of the best in classic science fiction novels and short stories, complete with original illustrations. Here's one of the true early classics of science fiction, penned by noted sci-fi author John W. Campbell, called "Invaders from the Infinite." The famous scientific trio of Arcot, Wade and Morey, challenged by the most ruthless aliens in all the universes, blasted off on an intergalactic search for defenses against the invaders of Earth and all her allies. World after world was visited, secret after secret unleashed, and turned to mighty weapons of intense force--and still the Thessian enemy seemed to grow in power and ferocity. Mighty battles between huge space armadas were but skirmishes in the galactic war, as the invincible aliens savagely advanced and the Earth team hurled bolt after bolt of pure ravening energy--until it appeared that the universe itself might end in one final flare of furious torrential power... In this special Armchair Fiction edition of John W. Campbell's "Invaders from the Infinite" you get not only a classic science fiction novel, but all of the original H. W. Wesso illustrations, just as they appeared in the Spring-Summer 1932 Edition of Amazing Stories Quarterly.
