LOST "WEBLEY" PREQUEL STORIES TO AGENT OF T.E.R.R.A SERIES DISCOVERED

The Lost Adventures of Larry Maddock's Webley, Co-Hero of the Agent of T.E.R.R.A.  Have Been Found! 

Before everyone's favorite acerbic, shape-changer symboite joined forces with Hannibal Fortune and T.E.R.R.A., Webley starred in three solo stories about the doings of Creatures, Inc. This trio of Webley tales has never been reprinted, and since it appeared in a poorly circulated British science fiction magazine, remained virtually unknown for more than five decades. 

Filled with the same delightful wit as the Agent of T.E.R.R.A. novels, these early Webley outings were introduced by the British editor this way when presenting "Creatures, Incorporated" the first of the stories: "Humor in science fiction is more often that not conspicuous by its absence. It is therefore more than a pleasure to introduce a new author who presents a
strong streak of satire in his first story."

This first set of Webley tales place against a future of spaceports and star travel (as conceived by is author in the early '60s) in which Bill Grant is unable to find a place or make a living--until he meets a certain symbiote! Soon, the pair has discovered a way they can make a living together by providing an indispensable service their future world truly needs! Another uproarious 1960s Larry Maddock science fiction classic.
