	Fredric Brown Summary
		Fredric Brown was one of the most versatile writers of science fiction, producing more than one hundred short stories and five novels, in addition to a large body of detective fiction.
		Though Brown did most of his work in the period when science fiction was being criticized for weakness of characterization, his interest in the human psyche produced convincing portraits, especially in his novels and in those short stories dealing with the mind and its perception of reality.
		Although Brown sustains the comic tension between serious form and ridiculous content that is the heart of this parody, the disparity between Devereaux's distress and the silliness of the Martians is an unresolved weakness in the novel.

		Fredric Brown (1906-1972) wrote hundreds of short stories, and a few novels, exclusively for the Pulp magazines, mostly between 1938 and the early 1950s.
		Brown often unified his stories with a metaphor, in this case a horse-fly obsessed with finding a horse.
		He was a big man with a long, horselike face, eyes wide apart and a mouth that was a narrow straight line separating a lantern jaw from a wide upper lip; on the latter there was a two-day stubble of hair that indicated he was starting a mustache.

		This compilation of six of Fredric Brown's rarer mystery stories is volume number five in publisher Dennis McMillan's Fredric Brown Pulp Detective Series.
