Тяжеловато идёт по причине чрезмерной, не сказать "графоманской" многословности автора.

[KSR] He engages in the great question of the present day-environmental degradation, and what we are going to do about it - by showing with compellingly painstaking vividness and precision just how hard it would be to confect all the elements of a working vital environment from scratch. He is the contemporary writer most engaged in, and most eloquent about, ecological questions, and that is a great strength.

The novella Picnic by the roadside 1977 is a brilliantly handled mood-piece, dealing with a mysterious Zone in Canada where aliens, it seems, have discarded various artefacts. It was filmed by Russian director Andrei Tarkovski as Stalker (1979), which is either the most magisterially beautiful and profound, or else the most constipated and boring, film ever made. It is really hard to be sure either way.

The company Detective Comics Inc (as its name suggests, it specialized in crime-story pulps and is better known today as a publisher under its initials DC Comics) published the more SF Action Comics in 1938. This was the venue for the first Superman comics [...] Imitators followed, including Captain Marvel, who first appeared in Whiz Comics in 1940

Wells published the first version of The Time Machine in the small-circulation Science School Journal as early as 1888, under the distinctly ugly title 'The Chronic Argonauts'-a phrase that sounds not so much the name of a novel as a medical diagnosis.
