Books Update: Akers and Akers of Dray Prescot

Posted on 24th March 2016 by 30CC24th March 2016

*Science Fiction, Fantasy & Horror: In 1971 Donald A Wollheim, a veteran paperback editor who had previously worked for Ace, founded DAW publishing company with his wife. The company was the first ever devoted to just Science Fiction and Fantasy. Several of Ace’s high profile writers, including E C Tubb and John Brunner supported him by contributing works for him to publish. Kenneth Bulmer also wrote to support DAW, rattling out 37 Dray Prescot novels for DAW within a few years, using the pseudonym ‘Alan Burt Akers’. We have added the first five of these novels, all having Scorpio in the title. The first book, Transit To Scorpio is available in UK (Orbit) and US (DAW) editions. The books feature a range of notable artists on their covers and internal illustrations, including Chris Achilleos, Jack Gaughan, Josh Kirby and Tim Kirk.
