Summary: "Astounding Stories of Super-Science September 1930" by Various is a collection of science fiction stories written in the early 20th century. This anthology features thrilling narratives from notable writers of the time, exploring themes of communication, technology, and futuristic societies through imaginative tales. The collection promises readers an engaging journey into speculative fiction, with intriguing plots that include a coded message in "A Problem in Communication" and adventures in dystopian settings like "Jetta of the Lowlands." The opening portion introduces a story titled "A Problem in Communication," narrated by Dr. Peter Hagstrom, who reflects on his lifelong friendship with Carl Benda, who has recently joined a mysterious entity known as the Science Community. This community appears to have a utopian but fanatical adherence to rationality and scientific progress. The narrative hints at an underlying threat as Benda seems to have changed after joining this group, prompting Dr. Hagstrom to visit and uncover its secrets. The story sets a tense atmosphere as it explores the ideas of lost individuality and the potential dangers of radical ideologies in a compelling mix of personal connection and societal critique.
