Conway, Troy
A House Name of the New York-based Paperback Library, whose chief though minor sf relevance is its use for the Coxeman soft-porn thrillers, mostly by Michael Avallone; these include some sf. Gardner F Fox also wrote two Coxeman books [see Checklist below]. Charles E Fritch may also have written one or more novels as Conway, but this is not certain. [DRL]
