Edmond Haraucourt (1856-1941) was amongst the pioneers of French
scientific romance influenced by H. G. Wells, easily ranking
alongside the better-known Maurice Renard and J.-H. Rosny Aine. In
this collection of nine ground-breaking science fiction stories,
published beween 1888 and 1919, he describes the rise of the
Antichrist, the cataclysmic consequences of the discovery of an
immortality serum, a journey across the ruins of Paris in the Year
6983, the fall of the Moon upon the Earth, the last of the Great
Wars that ends all life on Earth, and even a futuristic "Planet of
the Apes" where evolved gorillas wonder, "Are Apes descended from
Humans?"
