More About the Author
Product Description
Book Description
One hundred of Ray Bradbury's remarkable stories which have earned him a huge international audience and a reputation as the premier science fiction and fantasy writer of our times.
Product Description
p-Included here are famous tales like 'Sound of Thunder', in which the carelessness of a group of time-travellers leads to disastrous consequences, and 'The Veldt', in which two seemingly innocent young children transform their nursery into a lethal trap. Here are the Martian stories, tales that vividly animate the red planet with its brittle cities and double-mooned sky. Here are stories which speak of a special nostalgia for Green Town, Illinois, the perfect setting for a seemingly cloudless childhood - except for the unknown terror lurking in the ravine. Here are the Irish stories and the Mexican stories, linked across their separate geographies by Bradbury's astonishing inventiveness. Here, too, are thrilling, terrifying stories such as 'The Fog Horn' - perfect for reading under the covers.
Read for the first time, these stories are a feast for the imagination; read again - and again - they reveal new, dazzling facets of a master storyteller's extraordinary art.

Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
100 stories selected by Ray himself,a master of fantasy,SF,horror,and so much more that is not easily definable.I've been reading him for over 40 years now,and this volume is much better than a lot of the very expensive and(dare I say it?)full of typo volumes available from small presses--I know,I'm a collector of sorts,and this is great value,with Everyman's usual first class job of presentation.If you know RB,don't hesitate,if you don't,you will make one of your lifetime's best buys.

Format:Hardcover
Terrific selection of Bradbury's stories in a great format hardcover book. Unfortunately, due care with the packaging was not taken so the top right corner a little crushed/wrinkled. Better care is taken with items from the US Amazon site.
