Commence countdown… Rocket Ride Books readies to launch its flagship offering, Who Goes There? by John W. Campbell, the novella that formed the basis of THE THING, available soon in print and spine-tingling audio…
Buried for years, the legendary classic, still regarded as one of the best science fiction stories ever penned, is fresh as ever, ready to come alive for a new generation! Many fans, reared on the John Carpenter and Howard Hawks film versions, are unaware of the novella that started it all. And as usual, the book is better than the movie…
We are proud to announce that the print edition will feature legendary sci-fi author, William F. Nolan’s (Logan’s Run, Burnt Offerings), previously unpublished Screen Treatment for Who Goes There?, written for Universal Studios in 1978. While cinema buffs know that John Carpenter’s version was ultimately made into the 1982 film, fans of Campbell, William F. Nolan, and all-things-THE THING will appreciate Nolan’s intriguing, scary take on the story. Both the print and audio edition feature an all-new Introduction by William F. Nolan.
We’ll be talking about Who Goes There? in a coming series of articles. So, grab your ice axe and stay alert!…
