In H.G. Wells' The Star, a new celestial body appears in the night sky. At first, it is a beautiful, mysterious visitor. Then An astronomer calculates its path and realises it is no distant curiosity but a rogue world hurtling toward the Sun, dragging Neptune in its wake. As it draws closer, astronomers realize with horror that it is reshaping the solar system, and will pass close ot Earth. As tidal waves, earthquakes, and climate shifts ravage the planet, humanity is forced to confront its utter insignificance in the face of a vast, indifferent cosmos.
A chilling and unforgettable vision of the apocalypse from the pen that brought you The War of the Worlds.
In a work now largely credited to his son Michel, Jules Verne leaps forward a millenium to a world of technological marvels In the Year 2889. the tale follows the powerful director of a global news network in a world of air-cars, pneumatic tubes, spoken news broadcast to every home, and weather ordered like room service. A brilliant, playful, and sometimes unsettling forecast of the media age, with many surprisingly accurate predictions.
Experience the ultimate contrast in speculative fiction. From the cosmic terror of a world ending to the dazzling promise of a world transformed, this collection is a must-listen for any fan of science fiction, featuring two stories that laid the foundation for everything that came after.
