(1885-1943) UK author of Veeni the Master: "The Story of a Dream": A Romance (1912), a tale in which fantasy and sf topoi crudely intersect as humanity faces the End of the World after a Comet strikes (see Disaster), but a remnant are saved through the ministrations of the eponymous Veeni, who seems to hold a Secret Master brief over Homo sapiens. Those lucky enough to be selected are, after the destruction of their Earthly bodies, embedded by Identity Transfer into the bodies of the humanoid inhabitants of a planet known as Zan. [JC]
