Amazing Stories, April 1928 This issue of *Amazing Stories* (Vol. 3, No. 1) features science fiction and fantastical narratives across multiple story lengths.

Keller's "The Yeast Men" and Harley S. Aldinger's "The Way of a Dinosaur" offer speculative fiction treatments. Hugo Gernsback contributes "Baron Munchhausen's Scientific Adventures," continuing a Mars-focused narrative with radio communications and Martian scientific observation. Clare Winger Harris provides "The Miracle of the Lily," while Hal Grant's "The Ancient Horror" and Charles S. Wolfe's "The Master Key" suggest darker fantastic elements. Cecil B. White's "The Return of the Martians" closes the issue. The cover references an ongoing science-fiction contest offering $300 in prizes.
