''The Black Star Passes'' is a collection of science fiction short stories by American author John W. Campbell, Jr.. It was first published in 1953 by Fantasy Press in an edition of 2,951 copies. The book is the first in Campbell's Arcot, Morey and Wade series. The stories originally appeared in the magazines ''Amazing Stories'' and ''Amazing Stories Quarterly'', and were "extensively edited" for book publication, with Campbell's approval, by Lloyd Arthur Eshbach.〔Everett F. Bleiler, ''Science-Fiction: The Gernsback Years'', Kent State University Press, 1998, p.52〕 ''Galaxy'' reviewer Groff Conklin described the stories as "three creaking classics . . . fun to read, () rococo antiques () believable characters, human relations, even logical plots."〔"Galaxy's 5 Star Shelf", ''Galaxy Science Fiction'', April 1954, p.120〕 Boucher and McComas dismissed the book as "a hopelessly outdated set of novelets . . . of concern only to those who wish to observe the awkward larval stage of a major figure in science fiction."〔"Recommended Reading," ''F&SF'', February 1954, p.95.〕 P. Schuyler Miller described the stories as "old-fashioned fun which () no longer takes any more seriously than you need to."〔"The Reference Library", ''Astounding Science Fiction'', March 1954, p.156〕 ==Contents== * Introduction * "Piracy Preferred" * "Solarite" * "The Black Star Passes" 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Black Star Passes」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
