    To Marry Medusa

    Theodore Sturgeon

    Formats & Editions

    It came from outer space . . .

    The Medusa, the intergalactic conqueror, a hive-like being with a consuming appetite to absorb all life in the universe.

    Now the Medusa had reached Earth. It had taken control of its first human being. Through him it would possess all his fellows.

    But there was one thing the Medusa had not reckoned on. One tiny factor in the complex human equation. A desperate last chance for the stubborn and independent creature known as Man to save himself . . .

    Theodore Sturgeon

    Theodore Sturgeon (1918 - 1985)

    Theodore Sturgeon was born Edward Hamilton Waldo in New York City in 1918. Sturgeon was not a pseudonym; his name was legally changed after his parents' divorce. After selling his first SF story to Astounding in 1939, he travelled for some years, only returning in earnest in 1946. He produced a great body of acclaimed short fiction (SF's premier short story award is named in his honour) as well as a number of novels, including More Than Human, which was awarded the 1954 retro-Hugo in 2004. In addition to coining Sturgeon's Law - '90% of everything is crud' - he wrote the screenplays for seminal Star Trek episodes 'Shore Leave' and 'Amok Time', inventing the famous Vulcan mating ritual, the pon farr.
