Pseudonym thought to belong to the UK author and editor Julian Franklyn (1899-1970), who also wrote on the occult and parapsychology, and is said to have written both sf and crime for the publishers Scion while an editor there. A single sf novel appeared under the Magroon byline, the Space Flight adventure Burning Void (1952). The frequent identification of this pseudonym as John Russell Fearn's is definitely incorrect.
