WAS DONALD E. WESTLAKE A SCIENCE FICTION WRITER?

Everyone knows him as the mystery writer who published books like The Hook (2000), Bad News 2001, and Put a Lid on It (2002) under his own name, Donald E. Westlake, and of course that he was also Richard Stark and a number of other favorite authors. But a science fiction writer? – Really? – You bet he was, early on in his career. (He even wrote one SF novel – Anarchaos, in 1966, as Curt Clark. )

He also wrote quite a bit of short SF, like this weird little SF mystery that first graced the pages of Amazing in 1963.
