This is science fiction at its literate best with every story a little gem. A clock that reverses the order of history, a potion that prolongs youth, a machine that disintegrates matter, the prospect of the earth burning to a crisp from the heat of the sun and the effects of the absence of gravity; all this and more can be found in this superb collection of unabridged classic science fiction stories. Read by Nicky Henson Stories included: The Disintegration Machine by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle The Clock That Went Backward by Edward Page Mitchell Into the Sun by Robert Duncan Milne Dr. Heidegger's Experiment by Nathaniel Hawthorne A Thousand Deaths by Jack London A Tale of Negative Gravity by Frank R.
