Oxford Bookworms Library Stage 6 Meteor and Other Stories

John Wyndham
Retold by Patrick Nobes

STAGE 6 - Fantasy & Horror

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 occasionally fall 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.

Oxford Bookworms Library Stage 5 Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?

Philip K. Dick
Retold by A. Hopkins and J. Potter

STAGE 5 - Fantasy & Horror

San Francisco lies under a cloud of radioactive dust. People live in half-deserted apartment buildings, and keep electric animals as pets because so many real animals have died. Most people emigrate to Mars - unless they have a job to do on Earth.

Like Rick Deckard - android killer for the police and owner of an electric sheep. This week he has to find, identify, and kill six androids which have escaped from Mars. They're machines, but they look and sound and think like humans - clever, dangerous humans. They will be hard to kill.

The film Blade Runner was based on this famous novel.

Retold by Rosemary Border

STAGE 5 - Fantasy & Horror

After dinner we turned the lights out and played 'hide-and-seek'. In the dark, I touched a hand, a very cold hand. Now, because of the game, I had to hide in the dark with . . . with this cold person - not speaking, not knowing who it was. Slowly the others found us, hid with us, until we were all there - all thirteen. Thirteen? But there were only twelve people in the house!

We touched each other in the dark, counting. Thirteen. Quickly, nervously, I lit a match to see . . .

Oxford Bookworms Library Stage 5 I, Robot - Short Stories

Isaac Asimov
Retold by Rowena Akinyemi

STAGE 5 - Fantasy & Horror

A human being is a soft, weak creature. It needs constant supplies of air, water, and food; it has to spend a third of its life asleep, and it can't work if the temperature is too hot or too cold.

But a robot is made of strong metal. It uses electrical energy directly, never sleeps, and can work in any temperature. It is stronger, more efficient - and sometimes more human than human beings.

Isaac Asimov was one of the greatest science-fiction writers, and these short stories give us an unforgettable and terrifying vision of the future.

Oxford Bookworms Library Stage 6 The Fly and Other Horror Stories

Retold by John Escott

STAGE 6 - Fantasy & Horror

Flies are a nuisance. They are annoying when they buzz around you, but you can brush them away with your hand. After all, a fly is only about half the size of your fingernail. But suppose it wasn't. Catch a fly and look at it closely - look at its head, its eyes, its legs. Now imagine that this thing was the size of a human being . . .

These eight stories offer horror in many shapes and forms, in worlds full of monsters and evil spirits, where terror lies waiting in the shadows, and where the living and the dead dance hand in hand.
