Rocket To The Morgue Revisited
by Doc on Aug.13, 2007, under General News
TheThunderChild writes “Anthony Boucher, detective novelist, co-founder of the Mystery Writers Association and co-founder and editor of The Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction, published Rocket to the Morgue in 1942, which featured a few real-life writers from The Manana Literary Society (founded by Robert Heinlein.) We solve all its mysteries (except whodunit) here.

We’ve also used this book to inaugerate our new Time Travelers Guide. It’s imperative that time travelers know the places their visiting like the back of their hand. If they know too much, or too little, dire consequences could result. (For example, saving someone from being run over by a car could lead to WWII going down entirely the wrong path, as far as present history is concerned.) To guard against that happening, we present the Time Travelers guide for San Francisco, USA. 1942. http://thethunderchild.com/Books/TimeTravelersGuid e.html“
