In 1926, the American version of the film classic Metropolis was cut in half, now for the first time in seventy years you can experience the whole story. A very important book in the development of the audiobook industry. The music and sound effects are piped through differant speakers so the listener gets the surround sound or 3-D effect. The futuristic music alone (and the listener's imagination) tells part of the story without any words describing the action.

Living in a new world ... with shadows from the past. Mustapha never imagined that ruling as the King of Rhye would be easy. Building a world from nothing, uniting a wildly diverse populace, and doing it all while looking fabulous proved challenging enough … but perhaps dubbing his reign ‘The Age of Harmony’ was a teensy bit too ambitious.

Five visionary new pulp writers have envisioned four dramatic tales to guide readers back to those vaulted, shining towers of Metropolis in this new collection inspired by Lang’s masterpiece.
