Merlin determined to grant the request, and what was the countryman's astonishment to find when he reached home that his wife had a son, who, wonderful to relate, was no bigger than his father's thumb!

  Beyond the Ultra-Violet - When...

  What if the colors you see every day are only a tiny fraction of what truly exists? 
  In Beyond the Ultra-Violet, a young physics student volunteers for an experiment that gradually shifts human sight beyond the visible spectrum. At first the change seems miraculous. Ordinary colors fade away, replaced by strange new hues no human language can name. Heat glows in brilliant patterns. Radio waves shimmer across rooftops. Invisible signals that carry voices across continents ripple through the air like living light. 
  But the transformation comes at a cost. The more his sight expands, the more the familiar world slips away. Streets grow dim. Faces fade. Everyday objects lose their meaning as the student becomes captivated by the hidden radiance surrounding him. 
  Soon the experiment pushes further still—past infrared, past radio, toward something no physicist can chart. Shapes appear just beyond the edge of vision. Suggestive movements flicker inside unfamiliar bands of light. The professor who began the research grows uneasy. Some discoveries cannot be reversed. 
  When the final treatment is given, the student looks into a universe no human being was ever meant to see. 
  Frank M. Robinson’s Beyond the Ultra-Violet is a haunting piece of classic science fiction that blends speculative physics with deeply human loss. The story moves from scientific curiosity to quiet dread as one man trades the known world for a glimpse of something far stranger. 
  Frank M. Robinson (1926–2014) built a remarkable career that crossed science fiction writing, journalism, and film. His stories appeared in leading magazines including Astounding Science Fiction, Galaxy, and If. Robinson later wrote novels such as The Power, a chilling tale of hidden psychic dominance that became a major motion picture in 1968.
