His novels “Astronauts”, about the flight to Venus, and “Magellano Cloud”, a collection of satirical fiction stories “Star Diaries of Ion Pacific” and the collection “Invasion from Arcturus” deservedly enjoy great popularity. The novel "Magellanovo Cloud" occupies a central place in the work of the Polish writer . This is not only a science fiction novel about the first flight of people to the stars in the XXXII century - this is a book about the future of society. The Life of Humanity , permanently exempt from exploitation, about the people of the future centuries - so distant and so close to us , on their struggle against the blind forces of nature , about their heroism and the eternal pursuit of the future , to other universes.
