BiographyTo read about the life and works of Theodore Sturgeon I recommend : To read firstFor horror and spooky stories try the "Caviar" collection, Fantasy fans check out "A touch of strange", others might like to try "E pluribus unicorn". TV/Movie tie-insTheodore Sturgon's best known tie-ins are as the author of the two Star Trek epsiodes "Amock Time" and "Shore leave". Other tie-ins where the novelisation of "Voyage to the bottom of the sea", a Seventies serial about an atomic submarine, and the movie Killdozer which was based on the story of the same name. Other less well known tie-ins are the hard to find books of the western films "The King and Four Queens" and "The Rare Breed". In an early example of the power of media hype the book "I libertine" (Written under the psydonym of Fredrick R. Ewing), is a bawdy historical romp, was written on demand after it was discussed and reviewed on the radio. About this listThe list below is story name in the first column and volume name in the second followed by either the copyright date C or Anthology date. This is by no means a comprehensive listing of where each story has appeared in print as TS has been very widely republished but should help you locate some missing items. Those stories marked as wanted in the list below are required to complete my collection. A $$$ reward is offered to the first to supply. Details and corrections to Email: gannett at spikynorman.net For a more detailed listing with cover page scans see Eric Weeks Sturgeon pages. |
