"Astounding Stories, April 1931" by Various is a collection of science fiction short stories probably written in the early 20th century. This anthology showcases imaginative tales that delve into themes of space exploration, the unknown, and futuristic adventures, featuring narratives such as the journey of Earth men to Mars in "Monsters of Mars" by Edmond Hamilton, and the introduction of robots in "The Exile of Time" by Ray Cummings. Each story captivates with vivid scenarios that blend adventure with speculative technology. The opening of the book introduces two captivating stories. In "Monsters of Mars," physicist Milton invites his friend Allan Randall to join him and Lanier on an unprecedented journey to Mars via a revolutionary matter-transmitter. This teleporter serves as the bridge that defies traditional space travel, allowing them to leap through dimensions. Meanwhile, "The Exile of Time" begins in the strange setting of 1935 New York City, where George Rankin and his friend Larry Gregory encounter a mysterious girl, Mary Atwood. She claims to have traveled from 1777 and witnessed a mechanical entity abduct her into a time-traveling cage. Both narratives excite readers with themes of adventure, discovery, and tension, setting the stage for thrilling escapades that blend imagination with notions of science.
