Palos of the Dog Star Pack Greg Weeks, Sankar Viswanathan, Mary Meehan and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at https://www.pgdp.net "Palos of the Dog Star Pack" by J. U. Giesy is a science fiction novel written in the early 20th century. The book introduces readers to Dr. George Murray, a psychologist at a state mental hospital, who finds himself drawn into a mysterious encounter with Jason Croft, a man in a peculiar cataleptic state. The narrative hints at themes of astral projection, otherworldly exploration, and the intricate connection between consciousness and physical existence. At the start of the story, a stormy night leads an anxious housekeeper, Mrs. Goss, to seek Dr. Murray’s help for Mr. Jason Croft, who has seemingly been "asleep" for an extended period. As Dr. Murray investigates Croft’s condition, he discovers that Croft has been engaging in experiments regarding the nature of the soul and consciousness, alluding to astral travel. The opening sets up a unique premise that merges psychological inquiry with supernatural elements, suggesting that Croft has the ability to project his essence to another world, specifically to the planet Palos, further raising the stakes of Murray's involvement in this strange affair.
