BK REVIEWS FROM ABROAD [signed] Herbert Haufeler
(Conclusion, by Maybelle Anshutz, of a translation from Esperanto to Ackermaneasy of the Deutsch novels The Flaming Towers & Return from the Universe. #s 2 &3 of a series by CVRock, started in July by Paul Freehafer.)
~~The teranoj are invited to follow the "foreigners" & are led into a very beautiful salon.  Soon they learn those strangers are not true Venusanoj but came many yrs ago from another system, searching for a new place for their race.  They also visited Tero, which at that time was still ruled by the reptiles.  On Venus they found a human race of low level & the conditions of life there were then better than on Tero.  They remaind & naturaly with the greater knowledge were the reigning race on the planet.
But recently the race nrs extinction because it evolved the montal science more than the body capabilitys.
Their servants of the gods, the priests, made possible the interchange of ideas only by concentration.  But that hi race still had human offerings at its feasts.  The queen of the Venus race had been captured by the priests & guarded in one the 5 towers marking the center of their kingdom.  The toranoj succeed in fleeing before they themselves must serve as a sacrifice to the Gods of the Evening Star, liberating the queen & taking her with them in the ship.
RETURN FROM THE UNIVERSE:
Now after various beautiful & ugly experiences the teranoj have longings to return to their mother world, & direct their ship homeward.  On the way they must take care let they approach too nr the sun...but this danger also passes happily.  & when they are in their own atmosfere again they see much has changed in the interim, that where previously were found northern forests now are more southern-apearing regions, with marshes.  However the greatest surprise comes when they are calld by the radiofone & greeted at their return from the vast void.  There are their friends & onetime coworkers, whom they believed already long dead.  they found refuge in the north in Greenland, safe from the negroes who in Europe & Asia & Africa ruled the world.  But with the help of the brave space conquerors & spys of the white people found among the black enemys they after not too long a time succeed in expelling the blacks from Europe & again set up the supremacy of white race.

BK REVIEW FROM BDWY
[signed] ________

This bklot is one every materialistic scientifiction fan should have.  It is unique & a "science send", as our friend Mr. Ackerman would say, to those who, like myself, explain the universe from the bottom up & who ponder over the mysterys of life from a material angle.
THOT is authord by T. Day, pub't by American Bk Pub Co of 310 W 9, LA/Cal, for 10c.  I have not been commissiond to plug this pub; I just don't want to keep a good thing to myself.
The author goes strait to the point & does not oggle around in the usual lost hopeless manner.  It is easy reading.
Day takes the universe as a lifeless, unruled world & in convincing, 2-syllable words shows how life could be formd & developt up to the present state of alleged reason.

Saving...
