Journey into space with Polish scifi master Stanislaw Lem. The whimsical time-loops of Ijon Tichy's cosmic adventure 'The Seventh Voyage' are reminiscent of Douglas Adams, while the spectral whispers haunting Pirx the Pilot as he navigates his spaceship to Mars in 'Terminus', echo the author's masterpiece Solaris. Then 'The Mask' introduces a perfect robot assassin and asks, can AI fall in love or refuse its programming? What if the target of its affections is also its prey?
