  • Notes: "Illustrations by Luros, Murphy, and Orban." The column "Readin' and Writhin'" is subtitled "Book Reviews by Damon Knight and the Editor". Only the last, substantially shorter, review of the 1952 anthology "Beachheads in Space" on page 67 is followed by "RWL" while the other two reviews are unsigned. The review of Curme Gray's 1951 novel "Murder in Millennium VI" was reprinted without substantial differences in Damon Knight's 1956 ''In Search of Wonder'', so it was probably written by Damon Knight alone. The review of Jack Williamson's "Seetee Ship" (published as by "Will Stewart") was not reprinted in ''In Search of Wonder''. Its authorship is uncertain, but it contains a detailed plot summary of the novel, which doesn't match the usual pattern of Knight's reviews. The review is listed here as by Damon Knight and "Robert W. Lowndes", which is how Robert A. W. Lowndes was credited as the editor of ''Dynamic Science Fiction''.
