In this series we listen to short stories that are NOT by perhaps the most well-known author of this type. But the many other rich talents in the volume may have treated the subject matter a little differently, or were perhaps just overlooked in the stampede to applaud the winner, but these authors are of equal merit. Each of their works is laden with talent, has purpose, and is rich and textured in this gloried niche of literature.

Natürlich denken wir bei dem Begriff "Science Fiction" unmittelbar an "Krieg der Sterne" oder "Raumschiff Enterprise", doch liegen die Anfänge des Genres weit in der Vergangenheit. Bereits im 18.
