Lost Sci-Fi Books 286 thru 290

Five unforgettable stories. Five legendary authors. One journey through strange worlds, hidden realities, distant planets, and dangers that refuse to stay buried. Lost Sci-Fi Books 286–290 brings together classic science fiction by Frederik Pohl, Arthur C. Clarke, Ray Bradbury, Donald A. Wollheim, and Robert E. Howard—writers whose imaginations helped shape generations of science fiction. The Tunnel Under the World — Frederik Pohl A man wakes to a familiar morning, but something about the world around him is terribly wrong. As the truth begins to emerge, everyday life becomes a disturbing mystery involving identity, control, and a reality that may not be what it seems. Inside the Comet — Arthur C. Clarke A voyage into one of space’s most mysterious wanderers becomes an encounter with the immense scale and strange beauty of the cosmos. Clarke combines scientific imagination with the sense of wonder that made him one of science fiction’s most influential voices. Outcast of the Stars — Ray Bradbury A father cannot afford to give his family the journey to Mars they dream about, so he creates something extraordinary instead. Bradbury delivers a warm and imaginative story about dreams that seem unreachable—and the lengths one man will go to make them feel real. Mimic — Donald A. Wollheim Something is hiding among ordinary people, and its ability to survive depends on becoming almost impossible to recognize. A strange encounter gradually reveals a disturbing secret lurking much closer than anyone suspects. The Fearsome Touch of Death — Robert E. Howard Fear closes in as an apparently ordinary situation turns into something far more sinister. Howard brings his trademark intensity to a tale where reason offers little protection from the terror waiting nearby.
