Mystify yourself by meeting Frankenstein, a strange doctor with an even stranger concoction. Dare to walk into Flatland, Edwin A. Abbott’s fantastical, two-dimensional world. Trespass on Mars with John Carter, Edgar Rice Burrough’s courageous narrator who finds himself in a romance with an interstellar princess. Open the pages and let the science unfold.
