Synopsis "The Black Star Passes"

One of the greatest names in science-fiction is that of John W. Campbell. Famed as the editor of Astounding Science Fiction/Analog for many years, John W. Campbell was earlier known for his exciting, imaginative novels of super-science, which placed his name alongside such greats as Edward E. Smith and Edmond Hamilton. THE BLACK STAR PASSES is such a book, narrating the adventures of the Earth scientists Arcot, Wade, and Morey as they fight at first for the freedom of their planet and then for the safety of the entire solar system. For cosmic scope, daring concepts, and sweeping adventure, it has never been surpassed.

John W. Campbell (1910-1971) fue un prolífico escritor y editor estadounidense, considerado el padre indiscutible de la ciencia ficción moderna. Estudió física en el MIT y en la Universidad de Duke, destacando inicialmente como autor de óperas espaciales y relatos de 'ciencia dura'.Su mayor legado provino de su labor como editor de la revista Astounding Science Fiction (hoy Analog) desde 1937 hasta su muerte. En este puesto, impulsó la llamada Edad de Oro de la Ciencia Ficción. Transformó el género alejándolo de las típicas historias de monstruos para enfocarse en la plausibilidad científica, la sociología y el impacto de la tecnología en la sociedad.Bajo su tutela y estímulo, forjó las carreras literarias de grandes maestros como Isaac Asimov, Robert A. Heinlein y Arthur C. Clarke. Además, como autor, es universalmente conocido por su escalofriante novela corta ¿Quién anda ahí? (1938), que fue adaptada al cine en clásicos como La Cosa (The Thing).
