Latest revision as of 18:44, 6 December 2022
A 21-issue fanzine known as Knights of the Paper Space Ship (sometimes referred to simply as KPSS) issues 1–12 and as Knights for the remaining issues. The first five issues were edited and published by Mike Bracken and Joe Walter. Issues 6–21 were edited and published by Bracken.
The first few issues were published while Mike and Joe were high school juniors in Fort Bragg, CA, and much of the content was fiction written by the editors and their friends. By the time Knights ceased publication, it had been home to articles and LoCs by many SF&F writers who were then or later became well-known (including Robert Bloch, David Gerrold, Larry Niven, and many others) as well as regular columns by Grant Carrington, Charles L. Grant, and Thomas F. Monteleone.
The last issue was published one year after Mike Bracken made his professional writing debut. Writing as Michael Bracken, he is now the author of several books and more than 1,200 short stories in various genres.
