Sinossi

The First Men in the Moon is one of H.G. Wells’s most imaginative and thought-provoking works, first published in 1901. A pioneering tale of space travel and alien worlds, it’s far more than a simple adventure—it’s a reflection on human nature, society, and the consequences of unchecked scientific ambition.H. G. Wells (Herbert George Wells, 1866–1946) was a pioneering English writer, widely regarded as one of the fathers of science fiction. A visionary and a prolific author, Wells combined scientific imagination with sharp social commentary, crafting stories that not only entertained but challenged the norms of his time.

    The Psychic Megan Series consists of twenty-three novelettes about a young girl`s growing realisation that she is able to do things that none of her family can. Megan is twelve years old in the first volume. She has two seemingly insurmountable problems. Her mother is frightened of her daughter`s latent abilities and not only will not help her but actively discourages her; and she can’t find a teacher to help her develop her supernatural, psychic powers. For she wants not only to know what it is possible to do and how to do it, but to what end she should put her special abilities. Megan is a good girl, so it would seem obvious that she would tend towards using her powers for good, but it is not always easy to do the right thing even if you know what that is. 
    These stories about Megan will appeal to anyone who has an interest in psychic powers, the supernatural and the paranormal and is between the ages of ten and a hundred years old. 
    In Megan and the Cookery Competition, Megan’s mother, Suzanne is preparing to enter the annual cookery competition run by the Women’s Institute. Megan decides to enter too for the first time. She is taken aback by the amount of jealousy and rivalry among the contestants, but otherwise has a great time at the show.

    The strange, the sublime, and the monstrous confront one another with astonishing consequences in this collection of twenty-two stories from award-winning writer E. Lily Yu.  
     
    In the village of Yiwei, a fallen wasp nest unfurls into a beautifully accurate map. In a field in Louisiana, birdwatchers forge an indelible connection over a shared glimpse of a Vermilion Flycatcher, and fall. In Nineveh, a judge who prides himself on impartiality finds himself questioned by a mysterious god. On a nameless shore, a small monster searches for refuge and finds unexpected courage. 
     
    At turns bittersweet and boundary-breaking, poignant and profound, these twenty-two stories sing, as the oldest fables do, of what it means to be alive in this strange, terrible, beautiful world. For readers who loved the intelligence and compassion in Kim Fu's Lesser Known Monsters of the 21st Century and the dreamlike prose of Kelly Link's Magic for Beginners, this collection introduces the short fiction of E. Lily Yu, winner of the Astounding Award for Best New Writer and author of the Washington Book Award–winning novel On Fragile Waves, praised by the New York Times Book Review as "devastating and perfect."
