A new collection for 2025 featuring classic science fiction stories from a master of the genre, including the story that inspired Steven Spielberg's film, A.I.: Artificial Intelligence.

The collection Hello Earth, Are You There includes twenty-seven stories by the award-winning author with Hugo and Nebula awards, Brian Aldiss, OBE. As Grand Master of the Science Fiction Writers of America and Vice President of the international H.G. Wells Society, Aldiss has written nearly one hundred books and over three hundred stories.

This collection, celebrating Aldiss's hundredth birthday, gathers some of the best stories of his career, with an introduction written by William Boyd.

From the story of a boy who finds companionship in his robot Teddy – which served as the basis for the film A.I.: Artificial Intelligence – to robots controlling Earth in the 44th century, as well as a dinosaur's time-travel chase, this collection is a must-have for all Aldiss fans and an excellent introduction to the work of a true master of science fiction.
