"As part of The Professor Was a Thief book, you'll find two additional stories, 'Battle of Wizards' and 'The Dangerous Dimension,' round out this collection, reminding listeners that though Hubbard wrote science fiction, he often had a great sense of humor. The integration of sound effects, musical score and a full cast nostalgically harkens listeners back to the world of old-time radio. The main narrator carries the brunt of all three stories with a pitch and edge to his voice that is quite evocative of pulp fiction and while in other stories might feel overdramatic, firs perfectly well with Hubbard's tone." -Publishers Weekly, “As part of The Professor Was a Thief book, you'll find two additional stories, ‘Battle of Wizards’ and ‘The Dangerous Dimension,’ round out this collection, reminding listeners that though Hubbard wrote science fiction, he often had a great sense of humor.

Synopsis
Extra! Extra! Read all about it! The Empire State Building has vanished into thin air and all hell is breaking loose in New York City! What?s the story? One grizzled old newspaper reporter known simply as Pop is on top of it ... and better stay there, because his job is on the line. But how do you track down someone who can break the laws of physics? Pop won?t let go until he gets at the truth ... no matter how strange or astounding it is. The city that never sleeps comes vibrantly to life as The Professor Was a Thief takes you on a magical mystery tour of one of the greatest disappearing acts ever., The Empire State Building has vanished into thin air! Gone, too, are Grant?s Tomb and Grand Central Station, and all hell is breaking loose in New York City! One grizzled old newspaper reporter known simply as Pop?a role made for Walter Matthau?is on top of it . . . and better stay there, because his livelihood is on the line. If Pop fails to get to the bottom of the vanishing landmarks, his job will disappear as well, not to mention the fate of Earth's remaining landmarks and the missing people within. Battle of the Wizards: When the natives of planet Deltoid refuse to grant mining rights to the Galactic Council, and invasion by force is impossible, a Battle of Wizards is the only option. An epic battle between science and magic unfolds with an entire planet hanging in the balance. ?A biting sci-fi satire.? ?JG Dangerous Dimension: A mathematics professor who discovers an equation that enables him to teleport anywhere he can imagine ? even if he doesn?t want to go. By the spring of 1938, L. Ron Hubbard?s stature as a writer was well established. As author and critic Robert Silverberg puts it: he had become a ?master of the art of narrative.? Hubbard?s editors urged him to apply his gift for succinct characterization, original plot, deft pacing and imaginative action to a genre that was new, and essentially foreign, to him?science fiction and fantasy. The rest is Sci-Fi history., Extra Extra Read all about it The Empire State Building has vanished into thin air Gone, too, are Grant's Tomb and Grand Central Station, and all hell is breaking loose in New York City What's the story? One grizzled old newspaper reporter known simply as Pop is on top of it ... and better stay there, because his livelihood is on the line. If Pop fails to get to the bottom of the vanishing landmarks, his job will disappear as well--and land in the hands of the newspaper publisher's son-in-law. Any cub reporter could find a someone breaking the laws of the city, but tracking down a suspect who's breaking the laws of physics is a different story altogether. But Pop's like a dog with a bone, and he won't let go until he gets at the truth ... no matter how strange or astounding it is. In the end, he gets a lesson in larceny, proving that when you get down to business, size really does matter. Also features the science fiction adventures "Battle of Wizards," in which an epic battle between science and magic unfolds with an entire planet hanging in the balance; and Hubbard''s first published foray into science fiction and fantasy, "The Dangerous Dimension," the story of a mathematics professor who discovers an equation that enables him to teleport anywhere he can imagine ... even if he doesn't want to go. The city that never sleeps comes vibrantly to life as The Professor Was a Thief takes you on a magical mystery tour of one of the greatest disappearing acts ever.

    Item is as pictured. Shipped quickly. I will say that it's an NES box and it was shipped in a bubble mailer which feels like a higher risk for damage. But it arrived just fine.
