France is not a very fantastic country, compared to America, for example. Who, apart from Jules Verne, can you think of among French sci-fi writers? Almost no one. Rony Senior with his "Fighting for Fire", Maurice Renard, Gerard Klein... Who else? But there is a name in the fiction of France, which our domestic reader knows for sure - Francis Karsak. The novel "Robinsons of Space", translated and published in our country in the very early 1960s, immediately brought Karsak to one of the leading places in the rating of sympathies of Russian readers. Universal catastrophe, a piece of the planet breaks away from the Earth, and people living on it, find themselves millions of kilometers from home, in a world that must be mastered and conquered. Of the major works, in addition to "Robinsons of Space", this volume includes: "Escape of the Earth". The book is about a man from the distant future, told people of the modern era about what trouble will jeopardize the planet and how great-grandchildren for the sake of saving humanity will decide on a grand experiment - the "escape" of the Earth in the orbit of an alien sun; And also - the famous "Lions of Eldorado" and stories adjacent to the novel, the story of man and the lion, a reasonable assistant to man, the planet Eldorado, its troubles and its defenders. In the corpus of Karsak's works presented in this volume, the abbreviations and omissions made in previous editions have been restored; many of the writer's works included in the book are published in Russian for the first time.
