Moonrise: The Golden Age of Lunar Adventures Anthology by Mike Ashley
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 602 KB
Overview: Before the Apollo 11 mission succeeded in landing on the Moon in 1969, writers and visionaries were fascinated by how we might get there and what we might find. The Greeks and Romans speculated about the Moon almost two thousand years before H.G. Wells or Jules Verne wrote about it, but interest peaked from the late 1800s when the prospect of lunar travel became more viable.
This anthology presents twelve short stories from the most popular magazines of the golden age of SF – including The Strand Magazine, Astounding Science Fiction and Amazing Stories – and features classic SF writers such as John Wyndham and Arthur C. Clarke, as well as other writers for dedicated fans of the genre to discover.
