Feb 2, 2021 at 23:09 comment added Lee Eckhardt Squishing the crewmen is very vivid in my mind, but I will scan van Vogt's stories just in case.
Feb 2, 2021 at 17:43 comment added David Siegel One episode in the Weapon Shops series involved a new FTL space ship, which the hero (not a maniac) had to take over by climbing around, but there was no scene of anyone being crushed between hulls. It was not a generation ship, and I am fairly sure there was no GS in that series. It was an experimental prototype, and its flight lasted less than a month.
Feb 2, 2021 at 15:11 comment added Kristian H I swear it feels like something I remember from 'Weapon Shops of Isher', one of the episodes seems like the see-saw-er wound up in a generational colony ship that had devolved into two competing barbaric factions ... but I could be really off base here
Feb 2, 2021 at 3:28 comment added Lee Eckhardt I read this story prior to 1970 - that was the year I went into the service. It was either in junior high or high school.

May 30, 2016 at 21:59 comment added Lee Eckhardt It was mood and atmosphere, very creepy and violent. I read this in junior high - I had been reading SF since I was eleven but I had never come across a story like this one.
