In The Incredible Slingshot Bombs, Robert Moore Williams delivers a suspenseful and darkly imaginative tale from the Golden Age of science fiction. Set in a rural town during the 1940s, the story follows Tommy Sonofagun—a simple, wide-eyed boy who unknowingly wields a weapon of unfathomable power: radioactive pellets flung from a slingshot. When a string of explosions rocks the countryside, suspicion grows, and fear spreads faster than facts.

James Arthur Fradin, an eminent professor and scientist, has a new theory about radio waves. He believes he has found that radio waves and power are transmitted through the fourth dimension. He is met with disbelief and disdain when presenting his unique and controversial view to a distinguished group of scientists at a conference. However, one individual, a spy at the meeting, listens with extreme interest. If Fradin is correct, power becomes unlimited and is used for evil purposes. The spy, Marvak, needs to be stopped, but how?

On Mars, the dust is yellow, and microscopically fine. With the result that it penetrates to the sensitive lung tissues of a human being, causing distress. Crossing the street toward the dive set into the towering wall of the cliff overhead, Jim Ronson sneezed violently. He wished fervidly that he might get another glimpse of what Robert Heinlein, two centuries before, had nostalgically called The Cool Green Hills of Earth, and again smell air that had no dust in it.
