Oxford Bookworms Library Stage 6 The Fly and Other Horror Stories
Retold by John Escott

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.

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 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.

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