Autor

John Ulrich Giesy (1877–1947) was an American author, primarily known for his contributions to the genre of science fiction and fantasy literature. Born in Chillicothe, Ohio, Giesy exhibited a penchant for storytelling from an early age. He completed his formal education and went on to practice as a physician, all the while nurturing his passion for writing. Giesy was among the pioneer authors who shaped the pulp fiction era, with his works published in various pulp magazines of the early 20th century. One of his notable creations is the protagonist 'Jason Croft', a psychic adventurer, who featured in Giesy's series beginning with 'Jason, Son of Jason' (1919). The book, and its sequels, embraced the themes of astral projection and otherworldly exploration—a novelty at the time—blending Giesy's medical knowledge with his imaginative literary style. Although not as widely recognized as some of his contemporaries, Giesy's legacy endures through his contribution to speculative fiction, leaving an indelible mark on the formative years of the genre. His work is characterized by classic pulp fiction traits: vivid imagery, fantastic scenarios, and an enduring sense of adventure that captured the imaginations of a generation of readers and influenced subsequent authors in the science fiction community.
