What are the Stories from the Golden Age? These are stories from the Golden Age of Pulp Fiction which reached its peak of popularity in the 1940s, but really had started in the 1920s. The sheer volume of tales released during this wondrous golden age remains unmatched in any other period of literary history—hundreds of thousands of published stories in over nine hundred different magazines. Some titles lasted only an issue or two; many magazines succumbed to paper shortages during World War II, while others endured for decades yet. Pulp fiction remains as a treasure trove of stories you can read, stories you can love, stories you can remember. The stories were driven by plot and character, with grand heroes, terrible villains, beautiful damsels (often in distress), diabolical plots, amazing places, breathless romances. The readers wanted to be taken beyond the mundane, to live adventures far removed from their ordinary lives—and the pulps rarely failed to deliver. This time period saw the emergence of many memorable characters such as Tarzan, King Kong, Conan—The Barbarian, Doc Savage, The Shadow and even Zorro. Hollywood has long since recognized the pure entertainment that jumps from the pages of these stories and has turned many such tales into blockbuster movies. As to the authors who penned them, some of the more lasting names include H.P. Lovecraft, Edgar Rice Burroughs, Robert E. Howard, Max Brand, Louis L'Amour, Elmore Leonard, Dashiell Hammett, Raymond Chandler, Erle Stanley Gardner, John D. MacDonald, Ray Bradbury, Isaac Asimov, Robert Heinlein—and, of course, L. Ron Hubbard. For more information on the Golden Age of Pulp Fiction go here: Golden Age Stories FAQ http://www.goldenagestories.com/html/faq.php
