L. Ron Hubbard
With 19 New York Times bestsellers and more than 230 million copies of his works in circulation, L. Ron Hubbard is among the most acclaimed and widely read authors of our time. As a leading light of American Pulp Fiction through the 1930s and '40s, he is further among the most influential authors of the modern age. Indeed, from Ray Bradbury to Stephen King, there is scarcely a master of imaginative tales who has not paid tribute to L. Ron Hubbard.

- Calificación: 5 de 5 estrellas5/5Magnífica narrativa!! Excelente el giro de la realidad a la fantasía macabra y de nuevo a la realidad, algo que talves solo el sueño del ser humano es capas de gestar.
- Calificación: 1 de 5 estrellas1/5Lavishly praised by great horror authors (Robert Bloch, Stephen King) and critics (Groff Conklin) alike, Fear failed to excite me. As a total stranger to Hubbard's fiction (though I had read his famous self-help tome Dianetics with an open mind), I approached the book with no prejudices and was, in fact, looking forward to an enjoyable experience on the basis of all the glowing reviews. Boy, was I disappointed. The premise is workable, but it's essentially a short story premise; Hubbard padded the living shit out of Fear to stretch it to novel length. This was not an uncommon practice in the author's day, but here it hobbles the suspense he might have been able to maintain in a shorter format. The central character, a university professor who has just been fired, is unable to remember a four-hour period from the day his employment was terminated. This mystery could have been brought to a satisfactory resolution in the course of twenty-five or thirty pages, and in a story of that length, it would not have been necessary for Hubbard to venture too far afield from the initial premise. But the professor finds himself surrounded by whispering, mocking spirits, and when he is presented with a vast phantom staircase to descend in search of his hat (and the missing four hours), Fear suddenly ceases to be a half-hearted psychological horror novel and becomes a half-hearted fantasy quest novel. I abhor this kind of "anything goes" plotting; it's a momentum killer, and conveys the impression that the author's only goal was to fill up space on the page. (Which, in this case, was absolutely true.) When the denouement finally came, I was bored and no longer invested in the story. I wasted my time on Fear. Don't waste yours.
- Calificación: 3 de 5 estrellas3/5Stephen King considers this a classic but I just don't see it myself. Ray Bradbury called it "a true scare" but I didn't feel it. It was ok.
- Calificación: 4 de 5 estrellas4/5A quaint old horror story where a professor who recently wrote an article against demons and devils finds he missing 4 hours--and his hat. The search for these leads him to have a couple of bad trips followed by a lot of paranoid delusions all leading to a climax that's a little of a letdown. Anyway it's short and it was free on Amazon so it's kind of fun for getting into the mood for Halloween.
(I hope by reading this I don't get on a Scientology mailing list now.) - Calificación: 4 de 5 estrellas4/5My reaction to reading this story in 1998. Spoilers follow.“Foreword”, The Editors -- Puff piece by anonymous editors claiming that several, (among them Ray Bradbury, David Hartwell, and Stephen King, people claim this story as transforming the horror genre. Fear, L. Ron Hubbard -- I don’t know enough about the history of the horror genre to evaluate the Foreword’s claim that this work transformed the genre and laid the foundations for “contemporary horror”. However, I did like this surreal and paranoid tale of a man who has lost four hours of his life and is told by a mysterious stranger that if he finds his hat he will find the missing four hours and if he finds the missing hours he will loose his life. I can’t really say I’ve read anything like this before. At story’s end, it is revealed that he murdered his wife and an old friend. I’ve read other stories of amnesia blotting a character’s misdeeds from their mind and seen surreal paranoia stories on tv and in movies but not in this combination. I wouldn’t say the novel kept me absolutely riveted and paranoid, but I was interested and the last two chapters were very engaging. I liked Hubbard being deliberately ambiguous about protagonist Lowry being mad or possessed – I especially liked it when his skepticism crumbled and decided demonic forces are at work in the mind.
- Calificación: 2 de 5 estrellas2/5I decided to give L. Ron Hubbard's Fear a second chance. I'd rated it at two stars from what I remembered of my original read years ago, but was discussing discussing the book in a forum (where it was getting generally positive reviews) and figured maybe I had jugded it to harshly in the past.Well, I finished it a second time, but the book didn't deserve a second read. It just isn't good. And that's too bad, because the plot idea is a good one. Archeologist Jim Lowry loses his hat and his memory of the last four hours. He discovers (or should I say he 'just knows') that if he finds his hat he will find his four hours, but if he finds his four hours he will die. Time to buy a new hat, I say...Unfortunately for that kernel of a terrific plot, Fear reads like it is the result of a jumble of ideas Ron had that he didn't bother linking into a cohesive tale. Events that happen in one chapter don't seem to have any sort of effect on what occurs in the next chapter. The story seems to just sort of randomly flow with very little rhyme or reason to it, one surreal event after another. Situations rise from out of nowhere. In a way, the book felt like what I imagine an extended acid trip would be like. That might be an accomplishment, but I don't think that is what L. Ron was setting out for.The writing is not good. L. Ron just didn't seem to have much feeling for the atmosphere required to tell a scary story. Rather than imply things to get under the reader's skin the way the best horror can, he would just use short sentences (the verbal equivalent to a jump cut in a bad horror movie) like Two red eyes stared back! (He has an over-reliance on exclamation points! in his narrative as well.) Also, anything Lowry discovers through the course of the story is something that 'he just knows for some reason' rather than anything that the character sifts out from the events unfolding around him.The stilted unbelievable characters act like nobody except people in bad pulp fiction or '50's sitcoms ever really acted. Jim Lowry and his wife of several years are portrayed as being desperately in love, yet they sleep in separate rooms. The characters don't have any depth or believability to them. I never cared about Lowry, his wife Mary or his beautiful (and this is emphasized repeatedly) friend Tommy (who is aside from being beautiful is also a professor of psychology, though he councils Jim not to go ridiculing the idea of demons and devils. He is also a bachelor at forty who seems to have no interest in women. Maybe he should practice some self analysis? Now that might have been an interesting angle for the story to persue). Since I never cared about the characters, I never had any apprehension as to what might happen to them.The self serving foreword and fawning introduction from the 'editors' of the book don't help any. (Though I guess if I had a messiah and s/he wrote a book, I'd probably be apt to oversell it as well.) Also, L. Ron's foreword acts as a spoiler of sorts to the book. I understand he wanted to tell me what an original, creative genius he was, but the should have placed his little note of explanation after the story, not before.I'd like to see some director take the basic setup of Fear and turn it into a movie. One of those movies where the title and general setup is the same but nothing else is. The core idea is a good one. The way it was executed in this book though, was bad.
- Calificación: 4 de 5 estrellas4/5Fear is one of those mind-twisting kinds of books I like so much. Here, L. Ron Hubbard tells us the story of a college professor's decent in to hell after writing an article decrying the belief in supernatural evil. It turns out that his article brought him to the attention of some evil beings who want to teach him differently. This is not, of course, a comfortable experience. Hubbard's not one of my favorite writers, but Fear is quite good. His characters are interesting, and I really like the imagery he uses when he's leading us through the more surreal experiences. And his ending really stops the reader short and makes the whole book suddenly twist into something larger.
- Calificación: 4 de 5 estrellas4/5I started reading this just to try it and see what it was about. It was on the list for a Halloween group reading in which I was participating, but I planned to quickly abandon the book if I didn't like it.I really didn't think that it would be my cup of tea. I didn't expect to like it, even though the dust jacket contained glowing recommendations from Stephen King, Ray Bradbury, and Isaac Asimov -- all favorite writers of mine. The writing style seemed somehow odd to me, from the start. Other than the seemingly odd style (the nature of which I can't quite explain), the story seemed normal enough for the first chapter. Then it got really, really weird in a hurry. It was bizarre, it was unreal, it was madness . . .I couldn't put it down; read straight through to the end, way past midnight.I can't exactly say I enjoyed it, but I needed to see where the heck he was going with this crazy story. Then the ending really threw me for a loop, and I had to look back for a few minutes and try to re-think the story with the ending in mind.A quick, suspenseful read with a killer of a surprise ending.
- Calificación: 4 de 5 estrellas4/5En universitetsprofessor, Jim Lowry tror ikke på onde ånder og den slags. I starten af bogen vel at mærke. Pludselig bliver han udsat for fænomener, han ikke kan forklare og man forstår godt at det løber ham koldt ned ad ryggen. Det starter med at hans hat er væk og der er forsvundet fire timer for ham.Ganske velskreven gyser
- Calificación: 4 de 5 estrellas4/5Fear, such a subjective thing, and yet, Hubbard manages here to, at times, make fear a shared and culumative experience. To those experienced in unbased terror, panic attacks, and sudden fits of horror brought on by seemingly nothing in our own reality, "Fear" will be a trip down a familiar lane. The main character, Mr. Lowry turns from a man who refutes the existence of demons and devils, to one who is reduced by the seeming manifestations of evil to a superstitious quivering non-effectual entity. Slowly the fear is faced and conquered, but to what end? Sanity returns but a new reality has beset Mr. Lowry! "Fear" is an entertaining ride, most assuredly, as I, as many have, I'm sure, read it in one sitting, which as we know, only the decent books are able to provide such a mode for concentrated energies. In the end, I felt like I had read a mystery novel that concluded evil, or more precisely invisible evil, meaning devils, in the end, manifest evil by temporal and natural mean.
