Check out the new book trailer for Mesaerion: Best Science Fiction Short Stories 1800-1849. After extensively researching forgotten journals and magazines of the early 19th century I was able to locate groundbreaking science fiction short stories in the English language. In doing so, I uncovered what is possibly the first science fiction story by a female (and it is not from Mary Shelley). There is also the first steampunk short story, which has not been republished since 1844. Oh, and the first voyage to the moon in a balloon, republished for the first time since 1820 that further tells of a "darkness machine" and a lunarian named Zuloc.
Other sci-stories include the first robotic insect and an electricity gun. As expected, the founding fathers of the short sci-fi story are present including Edgar Allan Poe and Nathaniel Hawthorne. Read these fantastic stories today!
