de Timms, Graeme
Entry updated 22 September 2025. Tagged: Author.

Probable Pseudonym of an unidentified author (? - ). De Timms's Pulp-style paperback sf novels are Three Quarters (1963; vt Plague 1973), about a medical Disaster escalating to Pandemic; and Split (1963; vt The Fringe 1973), about escape from the warring nations of a Post-Holocaust Dystopia to a regimented quasi-Utopia whose required mental adjustments the protagonist resists. The Australian editions are variously credited to Graeme de Timmes, G D Timms and G D Timmes (vts only are listed below); confusion with the Australian author E V Timms should be avoided. Similarities in stylistic ineptitude suggest that Nal Rafcam may have been a pseudonym of the same author. [JC/DRL/SH]
