August Derleth Here are magnificent tales of the incredible future when mankind will have fulfilled his destiny and when the Sputniks will seem as outdated as the horse and buggy seems today.
You will read about life on other planets, the problems of driving a space ship to the stars, the ages to come when machines have evolved into unbelievable complexity. Man is at the dawn of a whole new era and these stories explore the question of what this new era will be like.
