Born this day: 04/07/1915 (d. 02/03/1958)
Henry Kuttner was an American SF writer who, with wife C.L. Moore as Lewis Padgett, created some of the best pulp-era short fiction. His Retro Hugo-winning "Mimsy Were the Borogoves" inspired the film The Last Mimzy, and his Gallegher stories remain beloved classics.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_Kuttner

Ao lay curled in her shock-hammock, thinking her own dim thoughts and looking at nothing. High up in the wall there was a puffing sound, a scuffle, and a grunt. Behind the grille of the ventilating inlet appeared the face of Macduff. -

He was swimming parallel with the beach now, and with curious detachment he observed that the storm had subsided. A pale, fog-like glow hovered over the lashing waters, and it seemed to beckon.

Henry Kuttner’s novel The Time Trap was written in 1938. An archaeologist is transported back in time, to a highly advanced civilisation that has technology from the distant future. A wild romp through time with plenty of exciting adventure.

What's this I see? Ahh yes, it's a Virgil Finlay painting on the November 1939 cover of Weird Tales, illustrating “Towers of Death” by Henry Kuttner. #FinlayFriday

Virgil Finlay illustrating “Call Him Demon” by “Keith Hammond” from the Fall, 1946 issue of Thrilling Wonder Stories. Keith Hammond is one of the multitude of pseudonyms employed by the husband and wife writing team of Henry Kuttner and C.L. Moore. By the bottom signature we can assume it’s another illustration made during his time stationed in Hawaii during WWII. #FinlayFriday

Henry Kuttner's Crypt-City of the Deathless One, a sci-fi novella published in Planet Stories in 1943.
A lost world story, with killer plants and zombies, a deadly plague and a man haunted by his past.
Clever and exciting. Hugely enjoyable.
