Amazing Stories, Vol. 1, No. 2

Amazing Stories, May 1926 This issue contains five science fiction and speculative tales. Jules Verne's serialized "A Trip to the Center of the Earth" concludes, with the narrator's uncle discovering an ancient runic inscription confirming their subterranean expedition. The same issue concludes Verne's "Off On a Comet." Edgar Allan Poe is represented by "Mesmeric Revelation," an earlier work reprinted here. H.G. Wells's "The Crystal Egg" appears under the author attribution "H.G. With" (possibly OCR error). Charles C. Winn contributes "The Infinite Vision," and G. Peyton Wertenbaker provides "The Man From the Atom (Sequel)," continuing an earlier narrative. The magazine's editor, Hugo Gernsback, publishes a thank-you editorial describing enthusiastic reader response to the inaugural issue and announcing forthcoming stories including works by Clement Fezandie, Murray Leinster, and Jack Morgan.
