Steel and Other Stories by Richard Matheson; Unabridged MP3 Audio Book; Narrator Scott Brick

Soon to be a major motion starring Hugh Jackman, here is a new short story collection by the New York Times bestselling author of I Am Legend.

Imagine a future in which human boxing has been replaced by heavyweight bouts between massive robots. Richard Matheson’s classic short story, “Steel,” is the inspiration for Real Steel, a new movie starring Hugh Jackman.

“Steel” is just one of over a dozen unforgettable tales in this outstanding collection, including a satirical fantasy, “The Splendid Source,” and two new stories never before collected in any previous Matheson collection.

“Stands as a testament to Matheson’s literary longevity.” —Publishers Weekly
