Squadron of the Damned

Looking for a satisfying, meticulously exciting adventure with which to while away an afternoon? Look no further than „Squadron of the Damned”, a short story from one of the most early writers in the genre of fantasy and science fiction, David Wright O’Brien. O’Brien’s work was space opera or other routine adventure, but many of his stories betray a strain of humor, not unlike Henry Kuttner’s at that time. Some of the stories were co-written with his close friend William P. McGivern, with whom O’Brien shared an office in Chicago. He continued writing even after he enlisted in the U.S. Army Air Force during World War II, adding „corporal” before all his pseudonyms.
