Gustave Le Rouge

    Gustave Le Rouge fut un auteur français qui se situa aux débuts de la science-fiction moderne. Ses œuvres s'éloignèrent des simples aventures pour intégrer des découvertes scientifiques, faisant le lien entre les styles de Jules Verne et ceux de H.G. Wells. Le Rouge enrichit ses récits de mondes perdus, de civilisations intelligentes et d'horreurs cosmiques, créant ainsi des royaumes uniques, à la fois fantastiques et intellectuellement provocateurs. Ses contes magistraux capturent un mélange d'aventure, d'horreur et de commentaire social qui continue de fasciner les lecteurs.
