The man who sold the moon

This collection serves as the chronological starting point for the Future History series, containing the earliest narratives in the timeline. While the stories are united by this shared framework, they are largely independent and feature different characters across various decades.

The stories are not arranged in a strictly logical sequence, neither by their original publication dates nor by their internal chronological order within the series. However, the book includes a chart created by the author that outlines the intended chronological progression of the Future History timeline.
