Otis Adelbert Kline (1891–1946) was a notable American author, best known for his adventurous tales of science fiction and fantasy which captured the imagination of readers during the pulp magazine era. A contemporary of Edgar Rice Burroughs, Kline has often been associated with similar swashbuckling narratives, primarily set on exotic worlds and fantastical locales (Weinberg, 1988). His works were characterized by their vivid world-building and fast-paced action, elements that contributed to his reputation as an engaging storyteller (Werbner, 1975). Kline's contribution to the genre is summarized in 'Otis Adelbert Kline: Collected Works,' which serves as a testament to his prolific output and influence on the field of early speculative fiction. This collection showcases Kline's ability to intertwine otherworldly settings with gripping plotlines, a skill that cemented him as a mainstay in the pantheon of pulp fiction authors. His literary style often drew upon the themes of interplanetary travel and alien encounters, long before these tropes became staples in science fiction literature. Despite facing criticism for formulaic narratives (Carter, 1973), Kline's legacy endures through his enduring works and the impact they have had on shaping the conventions of the genre. Scholars and enthusiasts of early 20th-century pulp fiction continue to appreciate Kline's role in laying the groundwork for the science fiction and fantasy that followed in his wake.
