Collected Short Fiction by J. F. Bone (ed. Jerry eBooks, 2020)
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 3.7mb
Overview: Jesse Franklin Bone was born on June 15, 1916 in Tacoma, Washington was a highly successful vetenarian and active member of the U.S. Veterinary Corps until 1976; and subsequently a professor of veterinary medicine at the University of Oregon.
J.F. Bone began publishing sf with “Survival Type” for Galaxy in March 1957. Bone’s short fiction—thirty-one stories and one magazine-published novel—remains officially uncollected; his most-anthologized tale is “Triggerman” (Analog, December 1958), in which World War Three is narrowly averted after the destruction of Washington by, as it emerges, a meteor impact.
His first sf novel, The Lani People (1962), is his most memorable; perhaps for his depiction of the Alien Lani, human-like females only happy when naked and when pleasing males. In the end, his account of the costs to this folk of human exploitation is graphically related.
Later works, including three contributions to Roger Elwood’s Laser Books imprint, are more typical of the sf style of the time.
Jesse Franklin Bone died on January 6, 2006 in Sierra Vista, Arizona.
