A Family that Reads Together, Rocks with Stories from the Golden Age... Galaxy Press celebrated the 10th anniversary of the Stories from the Golden Age at DragonCon 2018, one of America’s largest pop-culture events. Hundreds of people visited the Galaxy Press booth, many repeat customers, to discover books written during the 1930s and ‘40s by American author L. Ron Hubbard—stories that are appropriate for readers of all ages. This included one local family whose daughters chose four science fiction and fantasy Golden Age stories while the parents opted for the Battlefield Earth audiobook.

“I have been attending Dragon Con since the early 1990s,” stated John Goodwin President of Galaxy Press, “and I have seen it grow—considerably. What amazes me the most is its ability to retain the status as the best book convention and family-friendliest as well.”

Readers of all ages and from all walks of life have been drawn not just to the original pulp magazine cover artwork but the stories contained therein and so have rediscovered what a century ago was America’s favorite form of entertainment.

Stories from the Golden Age contain 153 stories written by L. Ron Hubbard that have been published in 80 volumes, in a wide spectrum of genres, including adventure, western, horror, mystery, detective, fantasy, science fiction and even some romance, using his own and 15 pen names. The series has now sold over 2.7 million copies and has helped bring about a renaissance in what had been America’s favorite form of entertainment throughout the 20th century.
