Science Fiction Adventures was a US science fiction magazine, published from 1956 to 1958 by Royal Publications as a companion to Infinity Science Fiction and edited by Larry Shaw for all 12 issues. It printed action-adventure stories, focusing on fiction longer than Infinity's. Historian Mike Ashley considers it better than similarly edited magazines Imagination and Imaginative Tales. Robert Silverberg contributed prolifically, sometimes pseudonymously. He collaborated with Randall Garrett in the first issue. Occasionally contributing writers included Harlan Ellison, Cyril M. Kornbluth, Algis Budrys, and Harry Harrison. Ed Emshwiller contributed cover art for nine issues (example pictured), with John Schoenherr doing one other. Canceled due to disappointing sales, the magazine's last issue was for June 1958; Infinity only lasted a few months longer. A British reprint edition commenced in early 1958, edited by John Carnell and continued for 32 issues by using reprints and original material. ( Full article...)
