Natürlich denken wir bei dem Begriff "Science Fiction" unmittelbar an "Krieg der Sterne" oder "Raumschiff Enterprise", doch liegen die Anfänge des Genres weit in der Vergangenheit. Bereits im 18. Jahrhundert schrieb Jonathan Swift mit "Gullivers Reisen" einen frühen Klassiker der sogenannten "Zukunftsliteratur". In dieser großen Hörbuch Box geht es nicht um technikverliebte Weltraumliteratur a la "Perry Rhodan", sondern um klassische Literatur, die sich mit dem Thema beschäftigt, wie es in der Zukunft aussehen könnte, und das sowohl höchst realistisch als auch mit großer Hingabe zur Fiktion.
