Utopia. A community or society possessing highly desirable or nearly perfect qualities. It may be a dream, but it's a dream that has inspired writers for thousands of years. Plato's "Republic" may be the very first utopia presented to a mass audience, but Thomas More coined the term with his 1516 book Utopia (included here), which describes a fictional island society in the Atlantic Ocean. The term (and its antonym, dystopia) quickly entered the English language. And here are 19 other works, famous and not, featuring utopias and dystopias...works by Samuel Butler, Charlotte Perkins Gilman, Anna Bowman Dodd, William Morris, Sir Francis Bacon, and many others. Included are: EREWHON, by Samuel Butler MOVING THE MOUNTAIN, by Charlotte Perkins Gilman HERLAND, by Charlotte Perkins Gilman EQUALITY, by Edward Bellamy CAESAR’S COLUMN, by Ignatius Donnelly THE REPUBLIC OF THE FUTURE, by Anna Bowman Dodd A CRYSTAL AGE, by W. H. Hudson A TRAVELER FROM ALTRURIA, by W. D. Howells FREELAND: A SOCIAL ANTICIPATION, by Dr. Theodor Hertzka MIZORA: A PROPHECY, by Mary E. Bradley Lane SOLARIS FARM, by Milan C.

Frederick Merrick White (1859-1935) was a pioneer in many fields -- the spy story, the detective story, and most especially the epic disaster story. His "Doom of London" series (1903), consisting of six tales in which various catastrophes beset London (including diphtheria, killer smog, and a devastanzing freeze), proved quite popular. The Yorkshire Observer wrote of him: “Mr. White is a master of the breathless pace which whirls a reader along whether he will or not." Included in this volume are all six "Doom of London" stories, plus 9 more tales: THE FOUR WHITE DAYS (1903) THE FOUR DAYS' NIGHT (1903) THE DUST OF DEATH (1903) A BUBBLE BURST (1903) THE INVISIBLE FORCE (1903) THE RIVER OF DEATH (1903) THE ISLAND OF SHADOWS (1892) A GOLDEN ARGOSY (1886) NABOTH’S VINEYARD (1889) THE CARDINAL MOTH (1905) THE CRIMSON BLIND (1905) THE SLAVE OF SILENCE (1906) THE WEIGHT OF THE CROWN (1906) THE FIVE KNOTS (1908) THE MYSTERY OF THE FOUR FINGERS (1908) HARD PRESSED (1910) If you enjoy this book, search your favorite ebook store for "Wildside Press Megapack" to see the 150+ entries in the Megapack series, covering science fiction, fantasy, horror, mysteries, westerns, classics, adventure stories, and much, much more!

12 tales of the masked hero, as he smashes his way through spy-rings and other fiendish plots to destroy America! In the spy vs. spy world of the late 1930s, this masked hero prowled the underworld, dressed in an "amorphous fluttering black robe, bat-like, [with] a gray-masked head through whose twin eye-slits menace glinted." But it was not so much the costume as the "hand, ebony-black in its glove--but for the finger curled around the trigger of that gun. That finger was not black but vividly, awesomely scarlet." (From "Caged Horror.") Powerful stuff in those days! Included in this volume: SECOND-HAND DEATH DEATH RIDES THE SOUND RED FINGER -- DEATH DEALER CAGED HORROR DEATH'S RED FINGER RED FINGER MEETS HIS MATCH RED FINGER -- SPY POISON! LOCKED IN WITH DEATH DEATH'S TOY SHOP ENVOY OF DOOM THE SPY WHO SOLD DEATH RED FINGER'S MURDER MESSENGER A note to the culturally sensitive: Some of these stories contain elements of "yellow peril" racism. This series originally appeared in the Operator #5 pulp magazine between 1934 and 1938. They are products of their era and are definitely NOT politically correct by today's standards. You have been warned!

The late Reginald Bretnor (1911-1992) was never a prolific writer -- he wrote only a handful of books and about 100 short stories (and more than 120 short-short "Feghoots" under his Grendel Briarton pseudonym) -- over a 45-year writing career. In addition to wars, weaponry, and science fiction, Bretnor's broad interests included cats. (And puns. Did we mention the horrible puns?) These subjects are all touched on in this collection. A sly sense of humor permeates Bretnor’s fiction, and as we work to digitize his complete body of work and present it to readers in a series of Reginald Bretnor Megapacks, we know you’ll have fun reading it all. Included in this volume are: SUGAR PLUM GNURRS COME FROM THE VOODVORK OUT CAT MAYBE JUST A LITTLE ONE UNKNOWN THINGS BUG-GETTER AUNT'S FLIGHT DR.
