André Ruellan
André Ruellan (7 August 1922 – 10 November 2016) was a French science fiction and horror writer who has also used the pseudonym of ''Kurt Steiner'', ''Kurt Wargar'' and ''André Louvigny''. Overview Among the best authors published by the ''Angoisse'' horror imprint of Editions Fleuve Noir in the 1950s was André Ruellan, a physician who used the pseudonym of ''Kurt Steiner'' to pen 22 novels, mastering all the classic themes and creating some new ones as well.

The world of Ortog is a futuristic Earth where sophisticated science cohabits with a pseudo-medieval society. In ...
