It's The End Of The Universe As We Know It!

I found my copy of GALAXY 666 by Pel Toro, a.k.a. R. Lionel Fanthorpe. This is by reputation the worst Science Fiction novel ever published in the English language.

Having become acclimatized to the pink-tinged light, which gave everywhere a strangely roseate appearance, and which had the effect of lulling their senses into a rather dreamy false security, the four explorers looked down at the ground beneath their feet. The ground beneath their feet was a very odd sort of terrain - - though “terrain” is not, strictly speaking, the kind of word that ought to be used to describe the ground of a planet that was not earth. Like so many of the old earth words, it has crept into the vocabulary of the empire. So they examined the terrain.

I wonder who owns the film rights to it.

Maybe another excerpt tomorrow.
