Description: In a world of sword and sorcery, technology and invention have become the cornerstones of the city of Gnowing. Fifteen intertwined stories explore a community filled with gnomes.

Behold the creation of the first ever newspaper, a peculiar concept called a holiday, the original fast food restaurant, and a steam powered time machine.
Description: Inspired by the success of Hugo Gernsback's Amazing Stories, Clayton Publishing Co. released, in January of 1930, the first issue of Astounding Stories. Early issues lacked much of Gernsback's attention to the scientific and extrapolative possibilities of the SF genre, and instead featured many instances of stock, pulp adventure yarns simply transplanted into exotic or alien environments. While possibly a travesty in the eyes of SF purists, it attracted many SF fans and general pulp readers, and aided Astounding's first three years of survival, until its cancellation during the height of the Great Depression in March of 1933.
