Tom Swift's Another Pocket?More Inventions: Seven More Short Invention Stories

by Thomas Hudson, T Edward Fox

Overview

One thing all Tom Swift novels have in common is the lack of details about his lesser inventions. How did they come about? Were they part of something else of standalone projects? This series of four collections attempts to put the story behind the 'thingamy' as in, "Tom raced from the room pausing only long enough to cream the thin gamy into his jacket pocket knowing it might come in handy later on." Here is the second collection of tales of seven more of Tom's inventions, everything from his innovative fuel kicker that will get his into space as the first privately-funded astronaut to the creation of an incredible, life-saving ejection system for the military to an adventure on the Moon to devising an un-snoopable communications system, and a lot more.

About the Author

T. Edward Fox is the author of nearly five dozen short and novella-length stories dealing with both the individual characters in the world of Tom Swift as well as over two-dozen tales of the famous young inventor's inventions. In late 2016 he completed his 19th Tom Swift novel and has 3 more coming in the next year or so.

He is, like a lot of authors of series like Tom Swift, is a pseudonym. Unlike a lot of series, he is a he and is a single person. Well, he is married, but is just one person. See?

Mr. Fox was co-author of an enormously popular computer book back in the late 1990s-which is nowhere close to being a best-selling author along the lines of a Clarke, Asimov or that ilk. He has the identical name of a famous computer expert and has been photographed, quoted, interviewed for national television, and provided a glass of wine, all by mistake.
