About the work

The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:

LibriVox recording of Short Science Fiction Collection 072 by Various. Read in English by Mike Manolakes; Alisha; Rapunzelina; Colleen McMahon; Dessa Dixon; calvin7; Michael Fury; lmcnatt; Dale Grothmann; James Jenkins; Andrew Gaunce; Mark; sonson; Jeff Rogers Science fiction is a genre encompassing imaginative works that take place in this world or that of the author’s creation where anything is possible. The only rules are those set forth by the author. The speculative nature of the genre inspires thought and plants seeds that have led to advances in science. The genre can spark an interest in the sciences and is cited as the impetus for the career choice of many scientists. It is a playing field to explore social perspectives, predictions of the future, and engage in adventures unbound into the richness of the human mind. - Summary by A. Gramour
