John Stewart Williamson (1908–2006), who wrote as Jack Williamson, was often called the “Dean of Science Fiction”. As a young man, he discovered the magazine Amazing Stories, after answering an ad for one free issue. He began to write his own fiction and sold his first story to Amazing’s publisher Hugo Gernsback at age 20.

Golden Blood was published in six parts in Weird Tales in 1933.
