A collection of Wold Newton-inspired short stories by Farmerphiles, experts, and the Grand Master of SF himself.A real meteorite fell near Wold Newton, Yorkshire, England, on December 13, 1795, and was found to be radioactive, causing genetic mutations in the occupants of a passing coach. Many of their descendants were thus endowed with extremely high intelligence and strength, as well as an exceptional capacity and drive to perform good, or, as the case may be, evil deeds.

Download The Other Log of Phileas Fogg Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
The Hugo and Nebula Award–winning author boldly reimagines the Jules Verne classic Around the World in Eighty Days in this outrageous sci-fi fantasy. The famous adventurer Phileas Fogg was not at all what he seemed—and his legendary journey was far more remarkable than previous accounts let on. Fogg was actually a human foster child of an alien race known as the Eridaneans. After being marooned on Earth, they enlisted Fogg as a secret agent in their underground war against their extraterrestrial rivals. Now Fogg himself recounts what really happened behind the scenes of his trip around the world as he executes a major phase of the Eridanean war. Readers will discover the true origins of Fogg, Passepartout, Captain Nemo, and other Jules Verne characters. The Other Log of Phileas Fogg is set in Philip José Farmer’s expansive fantasy world where Sherlock Holmes, James Bond, Flash Gordon, and other larger-than-life heroes all intersect.

Download Myths for the Modern Age Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
In his classic biographies of fictional characters (Tarzan Alive and Doc Savage: His Apocalyptic Life), Hugo- and Nebula-award winning author Philip Jose Farmer introduced the Wold Newton family, a collection of heroes and villains whose family-tree includes Sherlock Holmes, Fu Manchu, Philip Marlowe, and James Bond. In books, stories, and essays he expanded the concept even further, adding more branches to the Wold Newton family-tree. MYTHS FOR THE MODERN AGE: PHILIP JOSE FARMER'S WOLD NEWTON UNIVERSE collects for the first time those rarely-seen essays. Expanding the family even farther are contributions from Farmer's successors-scholars, writers, and pop-culture historians-who bring even more fictional characters into the fold.

Download Lord Tyger Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
A South African tycoon attempts to engineer his own Tarzan in a novel that deconstructs the original legend with unparalleled imagination. In a remote African valley, Ras Tyger is the Lord of the Jungle. He lives each day fulfilling his appetites for deadly prey and sexual conquest. But something sinister lurks behind his unspoiled life. He will soon discover the devastating truth: his entire existence has been engineered by a madman. Obsessed with the Tarzan novels of Edgar Rice Burroughs, a white South African uses his fortune to turn an English nobleman into the heroically untamed figure. Everything in Ras Tyger’s world—from his jungle home to the “apes” who raised him—is an elaborate lie. But the Tarzan books weren’t very plausible. And the experiment is about to get dangerously out of control . . . Drawing on true stories of feral children, Lord Tyger explores the real-life implications of the Tarzan legend. With ingenious meta-fiction, Philip José Farmer delivers a wildly entertaining sci-fi adventure that critiques popular colonial mythmaking.
