Metropolis is set in 2026, in a technologically advanced city, which is sustained by the existence of an underground society of laborers, a futuristic urban dystopia and follows the attempts of Freder, the wealthy son of the city's ruler and Maria, a poor worker, to overcome the vast gulf separating the classes of their city. It contains bits of the story that got lost on the cutting-room floor; in a very real way it is the only way to understand the film.Michael Joseph of The Bookman wrote about the novel: "It is a remarkable piece of work, skilfully reproducing the atmosphere one has come to associate with the most ambitious German film productions. Suggestive in many respects of the dramatic work of Karel Capek and of the earlier fantastic romances of H. G. Wells, in treatment it is an interesting example of expressionist literature. ... Metropolis is one of the most powerful novels I have read and one which may capture a large public both in America and England if it does not prove too bewildering to the plain reader."

Mystery novelist Paisley Sterling's daughter got engaged to the young doctor who came to town from the CDC to investigate a medical mystery -- and now he's accused of rape and murder! Paisley must clear his name before the lynch mob finds him. What she discovers as she investigates is truly horrifying -- a terror that threatens not just her daughter's fiance, not just their rural Kentucky community, but ultimately the future of the human species.

"Vril" is a mysterious energy used by Lytton's subterranean race -- refugees from the deluge that submerged Atlantis -- to power their advanced civilization. Generations of occultists have mistaken this bit of business for something other than fiction; and still more generations of science fiction writers have recycled the novel's plot. Vril is a book of strong interest to anyone doing a scholarly study of the evolution of SF; it's also a novel well worth reading in its own right. (Jacketless library hardcover.)

"It is enough to say that when Allan Quatermain, in the opening sentence of his narrative, speaks of this as 'one of the strangest of all the adventures which have befallen me in the course of a life, that so far can scarcely be called tame or humdrum,' he is well within the mark . . . handled in Sir Rider Haggard's best manner." --The Spectator, London
