The Futurians and the 1939 World Science Fiction Convention

One of the interesting things that I came across recently was the story of the Futurians at the 1st WorldCon in 1939. The Futurians were a legendary group of fans – quite a few notable authors came out of their ranks over the years, and it looked like an interesting story, one that was far more complicated than I thought.

Go read about it at the Kirkus Reviews blog: The Futurians and the 1939 World Science Fiction Convention.
