DEDICATION: "This is for Brian Kirby, staffer of the staff and patron
saint of the upright."
COVER
TEXT:
Gordon Carfax did not believe for a minute that that crazy scientist's
machine —called MEDIUM— could communicate with the
dead. No Way!
At best, Carfax thought the machine might be receiving messages from
aliens who had designs on Earth. So to get to the bottom of the matter,
he publicly challenged Raymond Western to prove his claims once and for
all. Undaunted, Western intended to do just that ... and he invited
Carfax to use the machine and see for himself!
(Ballantine/Del Rey)

Illustrated by S. Pavlenko.
Omnibus, together with the novels Flesh, Dare
and the stories "The God
Business" and "Strange
Compulsion".
As original title for the novel is given the non existent title Fan Fabulous Yonder,
with a publication in Fantastic
(1963). This refers to the short story "Some
Fabulous Yonder", but this one has no relation with the
novel.
