Book excerpt: This fourth issue of Phenomenal Stories features the beginning of the six-part young adult fantasy novel, 'The Book of Power,' by Richard H. Nilsen with illustrations by Linda Naske and a frontispiece by Richard's daughter, Cara Nilsen. The science fiction end of the world novel, 'After,' continues and we start two new columns in this issue. The first is a travel log by put-upon reporter/columnist J.D. Hayes-Canell titled Dunces & Dragons. The second column is all about writer by Richard H. Nilsen titled The Write Stuff. The first installment is a general guide to writing, but future parts will go into specifics to help the budding writer write. The editor takes a look at Isaac Asimov's three laws of robotics, and 'Gosh! Wow! A Personal History of the Pulps' continues with part 4. Phenomenal Stories is a modern-day tribute to the science fiction/horror/fantasy/speculative pulp magazines of the 1920s, 1930s and 1940s.
