Time to Teleport

1960

Salive Science Fiction Collection (Special Collections)

New York: Ace Books

Gordon R. Dickson’s Time to Teleport is just one of his stories in this Ace Double Novel Book from the Salive Science Fiction (SF) collection. Ace Books was founded by Aaron A. Wyn in 1952 and although he initially concentrated on westerns and gangster thrillers, Wyn realised the potential in SF. In their now famous tête-bêche (French, ‘head-to-toe’) format, the titles were marketed as ‘two for one’ and priced at 35 cents. Almost any SF writer of worth appeared in the Ace Double Novel Book series: A. E van Vogt (1912-2000); Robert E. Howard (1906-36), creator of Conan the Barbarian; Marion Zimmer Bradley (1930-99); and Ursula K. Le Guin (b. 1929) among others.
