Galaxy Press Announces Commemorative Edition Of Battlefield Earth

(LosAngeles.CityRegions.Com, April 06, 2016 ) Hollywood, CA -- Galaxy Press is releasing a new, commemorative edition of bestselling science fiction novel, Battlefield Earth.

With the original release of Battlefield Earth seeing it spend 32 weeks on bestseller lists and selling over 4 million copies, this new commemorative edition of the science fiction classic is well deserved. Add to that the fact that a 2016 science fiction poll named it as one of the top 100 science fiction books of all time, to say nothing of its being voted as one of the Best 100 English Language Novels of the 20th Century in a Random House Modern Readers Library Poll, and one might even say it's overdue.

This new edition will include never-before-published handwritten notes by the author, as well as expanded content, an author interview, and even lyrics. Gracing the front cover is an illustration by legendary artist Frank Frazetta, dubbed the "King of Illustrators" by author L. Ron Hubbard. Originally titled "Man, the Endangered Species," Frazetta's illustration shows Jonnie Goodboy Tyler and Chrissie, the hero and heroine of the story, confronting Terl, the evil security chief of a vicious alien race called Psychlos.

Being released at the same time is an unabridged, state-of-the-art, full-cast audiobook. This audiobook is 47 ½ hours in length, with 198 different characters, over 65 actors, a soundscape of 150,000 sound effects, and over 3 hours of original music.

Pre-promotion for the upcoming Father's Day release of the new Battlefield Earth commemorative book and unabridged audiobook at the Long Beach Comic Expo drew crowds of interested attendees, eager to have their picture taken with an 8 ft tall Terl from the new edition's cover.

In addition to the crowds that stopped by to have their pictures taken with the Battlefield Earth display, attendees, both costumed and not, took advantage of the full range of L. Ron Hubbard's fiction titles displayed in Galaxy Press's booth at the expo.

With the release of this new edition and audiobook, fans will have access to never-before-seen extras and can now listen to one of the "top 100 science fiction books of all time" any time they want—just in time for Father's Day.
