" ended very beautifully.
However, I did not like that about Sykes getting killed.
"Werewolves of War" was good. It ended differently from most
of the other stories. Most of them end with the hero
escaping, but in this the hero was killed. It had a very
good plot.
I got my first copy of Astounding Stories last July and I
haven't missed a copy since. Why not put out Astounding
Stories twice a month, or make it a weekly? I hate to have
to wait a whole month before I get another copy.
I believe that the best story I have ever read in this
magazine was "The Invisible Death," by Victor Rousseau.
The reason I like Astounding Stories better than any other
Science Fiction magazine is that most of the other magazines
have too much science and not enough action.--Dale Griffith,

"_To Satisfy Myself_"
Dear Editor:
It has been long since I read the February issue of your
magazine and I'm waiting anxiously for the March issue.
The February issue had some very good stories, and I just
must say that the story entitled "Werewolves of War," is the
best story of its type I have ever read. Unlike most of
these stories there is more future truth than fiction.
Perhaps you didn't expect to hear from me so soon again, but
I am interested in this type of story as I used to write
this kind in my English class back in high school. My
stories were of this type, but always different from any
that the rest of the class wrote. Another thing, I love to
be writing, so I take this way to satisfy myself. I do hope
you will excuse me.
I have one more thing to say and that is: I only wish your
magazine was put out every two weeks instead of every four;
or print more stories and raise the price to twenty five
cents. I'm sure people will pay if they are as interested as
I.--Ken F. Haley, 36 Mechanic St., Lebanon, N.H.
"_Easier to Turn_"
Dear Editor:
I have just read "The Readers' Corner" of the March issue
and noticed that bright remark about that super-rotten
story, "Skylark Three." Anyone who liked that story is
certainly not hard to please. It does not compare with the
worst story ever published. I also read that "other
magazine" and I say that it has disgraced itself by "Skylark
