#26: The year is 1930 and if you wanted a college text book version of all your favorite sci-fi tropes, this book has everything! Fission! Air ships! Biological warfare! Martians! Hive minds! Eugenics! Telepathy! Genocide via Terraforming! Not-Gallifreyans! No homo polyamory :( So many apocalypses, my god, why did it take so much time??? Come for a major inspiration of some classic modern sci-fi, stay for the beef with C.S. Lewis.
