fiction and devote himself to what it had supported these many yearsânamely, his serious research.

Portland, Oregon, 1943; L. Ron Hubbard, captain of the US Navy subchaser PC 815.
But in no way was the LRH literary saga at an end, for as he wrote some thirty years later, in 1980:
âRecently there came a period when I had little to do. This was novel in a life so crammed with busy years, and I decided to amuse myself by writing a novel that was pure science fiction.â
That work was Battlefield Earth: A Saga of the Year 3000. It was an immediate New York Times bestseller and, in fact, the first international science fiction blockbuster in decades. It was not, however, L. Ron Hubbardâs magnum opus, as that distinction is generally reserved for his next and final work: The 1.2 million word Mission Earth.
How he managed those 1.2 million words in just over twelve months is yet another piece of the L. Ron Hubbard legend. But the fact remains, he did indeed author a ten-volume dekalogy that lives in publishing history for the fact that each and every volume of the series was also a New York Times bestseller.
Moreover, as subsequent generations discovered L. Ron Hubbard through republished works and novelizations of his screenplays, the mere fact of his name on a cover signaled an international bestseller.⦠Until, to date, sales of his works exceed hundreds of millions, and he otherwise remains among the most enduring and widely read authors in literary history. Although as a final word on the tales of L. Ron Hubbard, perhaps itâs enough to simply reiterate what editors told readers in the glory days of American Pulp Fiction:
He writes the way he does, brothers, because heâs been there, seen it and done it!

Â
C hinaâs city of Tientsin is under siege: its Native Quarter is half in flames and the dead are piling up in its gutters. Worse, the Chinese inhabitants are sure the entire city will fall after their sacred idolâthe Green Godâalso goes missing. But when Lieutenant Bill Mahone of Naval Intelligence receives an inside tip on the idolâs whereabouts, he becomes convinced the idol is hidden in the grave of one General Tao, and that unless the sacred idol is found and returned to its temple sanctuary soon, the colossal reign of terror will not end.
Yet what seems like a straightforward undercover mission to steal back the idol turns out to be far more than Mahone can handle when he is met by Chinese officers who want nothing more than to send him to join the ranks of General Tao Lo, eight feet underground!
