The Affair Of The Brains

By Anthony Gilmore

A hook line: A pulse-pounding trip back to a city where brains, machines, and crime collide, and every clue could tilt the balance of mind and matter. The Affair Of The Brains is a daring voyage into early twentieth century america, where urban detective city life meets pulp science fiction and speculative dime novel energy. Anthony Gilmore crafts a brisk, high-stakes adventure that blends brain experimentation crimes with mind control intrigue against a backdrop of futuristic technology crimes. This is not merely a tale of peril, but a carefully woven exploration of ambition, ethics, and the fragility of identity, told with the brisk tempo and vivid imagery that readers of science fiction adventure classics will relish. With a clear and immersive voice, the book gleams as both a standalone story and a window into a vibrant literary era. Its significance is both literary and historical: a touchstone for vintage sci fi collectors and complete works omnibus readers, showing how early genre imaginations imagined modern urban life. The book's enduring appeal lies in its brisk plotting, evocative city atmosphere, and the perennial question of how far science should push the human mind. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions, it is restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint, it is a collector's item and a cultural treasure that honours the spirit of science fiction adventure classics and the best of Edgar Rice Burroughs-like imagination. Suitable for casual readers and devoted, era-spanning fans alike.
