Lord Dunsany - Science Fiction

[Fried Egg]

Apparently, Lord Dunsany wrote a couple of science fiction novels:

The Pleasures of a Futuroscope

The Last Revolution

Has anyone here read either of them? Are they any good? Do you know whether they are available anywhere?

I have, but have not read, Pleasures of a Futuroscope; and yes, it's currently available:

The Pleasures of a Futuroscope By Lord Dunsany - Hippocampus Press

"The Last Revolution" has been published, but I'm not sure if it's available currently. Here's one of the listings for it:

If I come across anything more....

I've got Futurescope but like a lot of books right now, no time to read it!

I read them both years ago. I remember loving Futurescope, and just kinda liking the other one. Sorry, but I cant remember anything about them, other than cover blurb kind of things.

Ive never seen a copy of either.

Thats because they are so expensive, rare to find even as second hand. I think i have The Last Revolution in my Lord Dunsany shelf, remember it costed alot of money as second hand. I adore Lord Dunsany, he is my alltime fav nr.1 author but there is alot of more important works of his to read,buy. He was so prolific for great stylist, creative author.

Baylor i would recommend you look into his War Tales, his Ginger Cat play, his other plays. He wrote so much that was brilliant that wasnt SFF.
