About this listen
Ten classic science fiction stories.
'Alien Equivalent' - Richard R Smith
The martians were weak in body and mind, but they knew what they wanted and how to get it.
'Assignment on Venus' - Carl Jocobi
The toughest assignment was crossing the infested marshes of Venus to deliver your own reprimand.
'Battlefield in Black' - George A Whittington
The Earth is plunged into darkness, her space fleet marooned; only the newest ship, The Avenger, is able to fight back.
'Invasion' - Murray Leinster
Aliens invade and erect an impenetrable force field trapping Thorn Hard inside. Can he defeat the aliens?
'Love Among the Robots' - Emmett McDowell
Henry is monitoring experimental mining robots on an asteroid when they start behaving strangely, and his life is in danger.
'Morgue Ship' - Ray Bradbury
Morgue ships trawl the battledfields of space recovering the bodies of the fallen to return them to Earth, but sometimes they pick up something unexpected.
'The Galactic Ghost' - Mack Reynolds
The aliens landed to save mankind. Earth was doomed; they came to take off a few specially chosen people, and that’s when the trouble began.
'The Last Monster' - Gardner Fox
The last survivor of his race, Irgi appeared as a monster to the humans, but his brain was hugely advanced and beyond their understanding.
'The Moon and the Sun' - James McKimmey
The first rocket is built, the scientists dream of the stars, while warlords see a new weapon.
'The Dragon-Queen of Jupiter' - Leigh Brackett
Jupiter is a war zone: the natives fight with weapons and every biological killer the planet provides. Can humans survive?

Welcome to Ringworld, an intermediate step between Dyson Spheres and planets. The gravitational force created by a rotation on its axis of 770 miles per second means no need for a roof. Walls 1,000 miles high at each rim will let in the sun and prevent much air from escaping. Larry Niven's novel, Ringworld, is the winner of the 1970 Hugo Award for Best Novel, the 1970 Nebula Award for Best Novel, and the 1972 Ditmars, an Australian award for Best International Science Fiction.
