Lost Sci-Fi Books 191 thru 195: Five Classic Science Fiction Tales of Vanishing Streets, Alien Worlds and Impossible Encounters

Lost Sci-Fi Books 191 thru 195 brings together five imaginative stories from Carl Jacobi, Clifford D. Simak, Hal Clement, Isaac Asimov, and Ray Bradbury. Familiar places disappear, distant planets challenge human survival, and extraordinary encounters reveal just how strange the universe can be.

The Street That Wasn’t There by Carl Jacobi and Clifford D. Simak begins with something impossible happening in an ordinary neighborhood. A street is disappearing piece by piece, and discovering why means confronting a reality far stranger than anyone imagined.

The Shipshape Miracle by Clifford D. Simak delivers another of Simak’s inventive adventures, where an unexpected discovery offers remarkable possibilities—and complications that quickly follow.

Hot Planet by Hal Clement takes readers to a brutally unforgiving world where extreme conditions turn exploration into a battle against an environment unlike anything on Earth.

Everest by Isaac Asimov looks upward rather than outward as humanity confronts one of Earth’s greatest challenges. Asimov transforms the famous mountain into the setting for an unusual science fiction mystery with an unexpected explanation.

The Visitor by Ray Bradbury journeys to Mars, where isolated men suddenly encounter someone possessing an extraordinary ability. What appears to offer escape from their lonely existence soon gives them something worth fighting over.

From a vanishing street and the summit of Everest to hostile planets and the lonely reaches of Mars, Lost Sci-Fi Books 191 thru 195 delivers five distinctive journeys into the unexpected from some of science fiction’s most celebrated storytellers.
