WEIRD TALES
ARE YOUR DREAMS REAL—VIVIDLY REAL?
Do you come alive at night, in your dreams? If your "night life" is as realistic, as true to life, as your everyday existence—then watch out! For dreams may well be dangerous....
Listen to the story of Henry Stevens, insurance salesman of Midland City, Illinois. He had two lives—two
DREAMER'S WORLDS
| —and never knew which was real! This tremendous novelette by Edmond Hamilton, scheduled for your next issue of WEIRD TALES, is the absorbing, dramatic study of an ordinary man.... and his extraordinary dreams. At night—every night since earliest childhood—he became Khal Kan, prince of Jotan on the fantastic world of Thar; day by day, the dream carried forward the prince's life. As Henry Stevens goes to school, gets a job, gets married—so Khal Kan learns to ride and fence, patrols the mountains, does battle with his father's enemies. "Waking" each night into the life of the prince, it seems that Henry Stevens is a dream. And every morning, when Henry Stevens wakes... surely the world of Thar—its strange cities and enormous mountains, its turquoise seas, twin moons and crimson sun—are nothing but a dream? And yet... The answer, and the terrible climax to Henry Stevens' dream, are vaiting for you in the November issue! |
From Frank Gruber comes a very enthralling tale of scientists who nose into secrets far better left alone—secrets buried deep in the dusty pages of...THE BOOK OF THE DEAD! You'll find thrills galore in this story of the Egyptian Ramahadin—last of the great high-priests—whom a long dead formula has raised from the silence of the centuries!
