The Dream of Scipio by Cicero is perhaps the earliest science fiction tale ever written. Written over two thousand years ago, this trail-blazing story tells of a man's voyage to the heavens, his strange encounters, and his view of the earth and the stars from space.
Other early science fiction tales in this fascinating collection include: -- True History by Lucian of Samosata -- Icaro-Menippus by Lucian of Samosata -- Urashima Taro -- The Ebony Horse -- The City of Brass -- The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter -- Micromegas by Voltaire.
