Knight was also a science fiction critic, a career which began when he wrote in 1945 that A. E. Van Vogt "is not a giant as often maintained. He's only a pygmy who has learned to operate an overgrown typewriter." He ceased reviewing when Fantasy & Science Fiction refused to publish his review of Judith Merril's novel The Tomorrow People. These reviews were later collected in In Search of Wonder. " (from Wikipedia). Very Good- . USD 15.00 [Appr.: EURO 13 | £UK 11.25 | JP¥ 2233] Book number 50953is offered by:
