Description:
In 1938, acclaimed
science fiction author John W. Campbell published the novella Who Goes
There?, about a team of scientists in Antarctica who discover and are
terrorized by a monstrous, shape-shifting alien entity. The story would later
be adapted into John Carpenter's iconic movie The Thing (following an
earlier film adaptation in 1951). The published novella was actually an
abridged version of Campbell's original story, called Frozen Hell, which
had to be shortened for publication.
The
Frozen Hell manuscript remained unknown and unpublished for decades, and
it was only recently rediscovered. Frozen Hell expands the Thing story
dramatically, giving vital backstory and context to an already incredible tale.
We are pleased and honored to offer Frozen Hell to you now, as Campbell
intended it. You will be among the first people to ever read this completed
version of the story.
