Lord Kalvan of Otherwhen recounts the adventures of Corporal Calvin Morrison of the Pennsylvania State Police who is accidentally transported to a more backward parallel universe. Morrison ends up in a significantly different version of Pennsylvania. Initially confused by the old-growth forest and lack of settlements, Morrison meets some friendly peasants who speak an unknown language. In the middle of a meal, they are attacked by a large raiding party armed with flintlock pistols, which he helps fight off with his police-issue gun. Reinforcements arrive, but in the confusion, he is shot by the beautiful young woman leading them. Morrison finds himself the guest of Prince Ptosphes of Hostigos, whose blonde, blue-eyed daughter Rylla was the one who shot him by mistake, and Prince's people begin to call him Lord Kalvan.

Book Synopsis H. Beam Piper by : John F. Carr

Download or read book H. Beam Piper written by John F. Carr. This book was released on 2014-02-11. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: H. Beam Piper is one of science fiction's most enigmatic writers. In 1946 Piper appeared seemingly from out of nowhere, already at the top of his form. He published a number of memorable short stories in the premier science fiction magazine of the time, Astounding Science Fiction, under legendary editor John W. Campbell. Piper quickly became friends with many of the top writers of the day, including Lester Del Rey, Fletcher Pratt, Robert Heinlein and L. Sprague de Camp. Piper also successfully made the turn from promising short story writer to major novelist, authoring Four-Day Planet, Cosmic Computer, Lord Kalvan of Otherwhen and Little Fuzzy, which was nominated for a Hugo award. Even those who counted Piper among their friends knew very little about the man or his life as a railroad yard bull in Altoona, Pennsylvania. This biography illuminates H. Beam Piper, both the writer and the man, and answers lingering questions about his death. Appendices include a number of Piper's personal papers, a complete bibliography of Piper's works, and an essay on Piper's Terro-Human Future History series.
