[net.sf-lovers] L. Ron Hubbard's sf

slb@drutx.UUCP (Sue Brezden) (09/04/85)

I heard that all of L. Ron Hubbard's sf books (from before his
religion founding phase--not talking about B.E.) were bought up
by the scientologists and destroyed.  They were evidently concerned
that people would not believe their drek if they knew their founder
was a sf writer.

Is this true?  If so, it would explain why I have never seen any
old LRH at my local used sf bookstores.  There are some, like "Fear",
and "Typewriter in the Sky" which are supposed to be classics, and
which I would like to add to my collection.

I wouldn't buy them new--I know who would get the money.
