R is for Rocket

Introduction: Ray Harryhausen
Introduction: Michael Marshall Smith
Cover Artist: Joe Mugnaini / Les Edwards

Ray Bradbury is a master storyteller whose tales of science fiction and fantasy have an astonishing range of mood, setting, and subject.

Science fiction, fantasy, small town life, and small town people are the materials from which Ray Bradbury weaves his unique and magical stories of the natural and the supernatural, the past, the present, and the future. There are space ships and dragons, a Time Machine, new planets, and the new science, but real people, reacting in their own personal human ways to the phenomena of a strange world, give these stories the haunting beauty that won wide critical acclaim for Bradbury's books, Dark Carnival, The Illustrated Man, The Martian Chronicles, A Medicine for Melancholy, The Golden Apples of the Sun, and Dandelion Wine.

Seventeen of his most popular science fiction stories, including several that have not appeared before in book form, have been selected by the author for this volume from the best of Bradbury in books and magazines. This is a book for the people of the Space Age, "by a boy who grew up in a small Illinois town and lived to see the Space Age arrive as he hoped and dreamed it would."

Unsigned Hardcover limited to 500 copies

S is for Space

Introduction: Sir Arthur C. Clarke
Afterword: Tim Powers
Cover Artist: Joe Mugnaini / Les Edwards

Ray Bradbury is a master storyteller whose tales of science fi ction and fantasy have an astonishing range of mood, setting, and subject.

Mr. Bradbury has selected twenty-two of his best known stories for this collection, and whether he's writing about space ships, time machines, a picnic on Mars, a human chrysalis, or the people next door, his stories are exciting, challenging, and hauntingly beautiful.

A spine-chilling account of inter-planetary invasion, the eerie tale of a dead man who walks from his grave, or of giant mushrooms, the sad story of a boy who never grew up - in Mr. Bradbury's own words, you'll find "not only S is for Space, but D is for Dread and T is for Terrifying, or D is for Delight."
