The Return of the Tripeds

by Neil R. Jones

About this book

Professor Jameson and his machine-bodied companions return to a world where an unseen influence has driven visitors toward destruction. His metal-encased brain offers unusual protection, but surviving the planet’s dangers also requires understanding the strange beings behind its history.

A prologue introduces Jameson’s transformation and space travels before the account turns to the Tripeds and the struggle surrounding their world. This is the complete story published in Amazing Stories in May 1932, with Leo Morey’s original illustrations and the matching issue cover retained.
