Galaxy Science Fiction Novels

Galaxy novels was a series of mostly reprint science fiction novels between 1950 and 1961.

The series was started by H.L. Gold, the editor of Galaxy Science Fiction, in 1950 as a companion to the main Galaxy magazine. There was one (often abridged) novel per issue, which appeared in digest size format. In 1959, after 35 issues, the series was sold to Beacon Books, which changed the format to small size paperback and introduced its own numbering scheme, continuing the series for another 11 issues. They also had the contents of some books revised to add mild sexual content and changed their titles accordingly.
