I read only now that he died eight days ago one of the leading authors of science fiction: 
 Edwin Charles Tubb , the covers of books, 
    EC Tubb. 
 If I write: 
  Space 1999, I have to help them understand  la dimensione di questo autore che,  
 deceduto a quasi novantun anni  , è stato uno dei più prolifici, con una bibliografia immensa.   
   Spazio 1999     , il famoso telefilm anni settanta è, infatti un prodotto della fantasia di Tubb e fornisce già una  
 idea della genialità   di un autore che non aveva alcuna pretesa di " 
 mandare messaggi  ", ma scriveva storie sempre affascinanti e mai noiose. 
 Se Spazio 1999 è sicuramente il  
 successo certificato dalla televisione  , è necessario ricordare almeno  
   la saga di Dumarest     come una opera nella quale troviamo tutto il Tubb e tutto quel che, almeno personalmente, I love to find in science fiction.  
 Adventure, immense space and unknown, new worlds and different humanity . The saga of 
 Dumarest consists 
  33 novels and tells the story of this person, Dumarest, who fled as a child, as a stowaway from Earth, is now pushed back ... but does not know where he is, because in his travels has gone so far that the Earth has lost his memory ... 
 Many novels have been published over the years, but only by two years a small, specialized publishing house in Bologna, the 
  Elara  , began the publication organ of the novels, with a chronological sequence, and the idea of \u200b\u200bpublishing 
 the whole saga  in eight volumes, each containing four novels (the last five). Right now they are out  
  three volumes and should be printed in the fourth, that arrived in mid-series. 
 The managing editor, Ugo Malaguti 
 , one of the "monuments" of Italian science fiction, 
 would cease publication of the entire saga before December 21, 2012 so, I said, we will know if  Dumarest back on Earth before  announced the end of the world ...
