Quest's End: A Classic SciFi Collection is a collection of sci-fi tales from the old pulp magazines of the 1940s and 50s. Heller and Hart bring these five stories vividly to life, taking the listener on incredible journeys beyond the stars and spinning yarns not soon forgotten.



--



In A Little Journey, written by Ray Bradbury, a group of elderly women embark on a final trip to an outer-space paradise.



In Quest's End, by Basil Wells, only the alien Thig can halt Earth's destruction -- with a weapon that was but a thought in his mind.



In Thomas H. Knight's chilling tale, The Man Who Was Dead, a group of men at an old country store on a blustery night encounter a skeleton ... that is alive.



In Anthony Pelcher's story, Vampires of Venus, an entomologist from Earth pits himself against the night-flying vampires that are ravaging the inhabitants of Venus.



In The Monster Maker, Ray Bradbury's second tale in this collection, two men are sent to capture the dread Space Pirate Gunther. But when their ship crashes onto an asteroid, their chances of success--or survival--look grim.

In a career spanning more than seventy years, Ray Bradbury inspired generations of readers to dream, think, and create. A prolific author of hundreds of short stories and close to fifty books, as well as numerous poems, essays, operas, plays, and screenplays, Bradbury was one of the most celebrated writers of our time. His groundbreaking works include Fahrenheit 451, The Martian Chronicles, The Illustrated Man, Dandelion Wine, and Something Wicked This Way Comes. An Emmy Award winner for his teleplay The Halloween Tree and an Academy Award nominee, he was the recipient of the 2000 National Book Foundation Medal for Distinguished Contribution to American Letters, the 2004 National Medal of Arts, and the 2007 Pulitzer Prize Special Citation, among many honors.
