      Dartmoor. A wild, wet place in the south-west of England. A place where it is easy to get lost, and to fall into the soft green earth which can pull the strongest man down to his death. A man is running for his life. Behind him comes an enormous dog - a dog from his worst dreams, a dog from hell. Between him and a terrible death stands only one person - the greatest detective of all time, Sherlock Holmes.

      "Famosa, escrita en un desafío por el famoso amigo del autor, el poeta Lord Byron, esta novela de terror gótica es una de las historias más inquietantes de todos los tiempos. Recuenta los trágicos eventos en la vida del joven doctor Frankenstein y las terribles consecuencias de su intento de crear vida artificial. Más de 100 años después de su publicación, sigue siendo una brillante y esencial reflexión sobre la ética cientí́fica, así como una obra maestra literaria." --

    • It was just a smooth round metal ball, less than a metre in diameter. Although it was still hot from its journey through the huge nothingness of space, it looked quite harmless. But what was it, exactly? A meteor, perhaps - just one of those pieces of rock from outer space that occasionallyfall down on to the planet Earth. But meteors don't usually make strange hissing sounds . . . In this collection of four of his famous science-fiction stories, John Wyndham creates visions of the future that make us think carefully about the way we live now.
