I can't think of anything AEVV has written in recent years that he didn't
blow.  If anyone can enlighten me, please do so for I have given up on
the author of the Null-A books and the first book I remember staying up
all night to finish, The House That Stood Still.
I got stuck after 76 pages of Children of Tomorrow and haven't been able
to touch him since. AEVV certainly was formative for me in the middle
'40s but I figured him as over the hill worse even than Doc Smith was
near the end. Please tell me where I'm wrong. Master-reads are hard to find.
