War of the Scientists is a gripping collection of three science fiction novellas from classic and much-respected author John Russell Fearn
Thrillingly prophetic in his time, John Russell Fearn's exemplary prose in these three stories shows exactly why he was heralded as a master of the genre.

In The Granite Angel a corporate spy is hired to investigate the illicit dealings of an infamous trader known throughout the galaxy as the eponymous and terrifying Granite Angel...

Praise for John Russell Fearn:
"... A pioneer of science fiction [... ] he was one of the Greats of the earlier ages, and his name should be there with Hugo Gernsback, John W. Campbell, Stanley G. Weinbaum, Murray Leinster, and all the others whose thoughts and works formulated today's modern science fiction." -- John Carnell, New Worlds
John Russell Fearn was an extremely prolific and popular British writer, who began in the American pulps, then almost single-handedly drove the post-World War II boom in British publishing with a flood of science fiction, detective stories, westerns, and adventure fiction. He was so popular that one of his pseudonyms became the editor of Vargo Staten's Science Fiction Magazine in the 1950's. His work is noted for its vigor and wild imagination. He has always had a substantial cult following and has been popular in translation around the world.
