Inventions of Professor Wagner

Energetic scientist Ivan Stepanovich Wagner is convinced that nothing is impossible. To defeat sleep and fatigue, to study the language of monkeys, to develop a real magic carpet - the scope of his scientific interests is extraordinarily wide. Sometimes experiments don't go according to plan, and the professor often finds himself in stories: both funny and sad, but always full of adventures.
The eccentric Wagner is perhaps the favorite character of Alexander Belyayev. It is to him that the author humorously entrusted the expression of the most unusual and strange ideas. Perhaps, at times, the writer himself hides behind his mask.
The next volume of the collected works of A.R. Belyayev consists of the fantastic cycle "Inventions of Professor Wagner" and several fascinating non-cycle stories.
