Tom Swift is the protagonist in this series of children's science fiction adventure novels. This is the fourth incarnation of Tom Swift. Unlike the previous series, it was not created by the Stratemeyer Syndicate, but was created by Byron Preiss Visual Productions for Simon & Schuster, who had bought out the Syndicate and obtain the rights of all the Syndicate's series. However, all gave the author as Victor Appleton, as with the previous series.
