Bragelonne rend hommage à l'un des plus grands auteurs français de science-fiction ! Voici la dernière des quatre intégrales inédites consacrées à l'un des auteurs historiques du genre. On y retrouve "Noô", space opera mythique et grand roman d'apprentissage, divers poèmes de l'auteur, ainsi que le texte "A propos recousus", célèbre essai sur la science-fiction répondant aux interrogations de ses fidèles. Dépassant les frontières du genre, la formidable imagination de Stefan Wul a ensorcelé plusieurs générations de lecteurs.
Stefan Wul was the nom de plume of French science fiction writer Pierre Pairault. He was a dental surgeon, but science fiction was his real passion. Most of his books reflect that, showing a deep knowledge of scientific data. Pairault retired from dental surgery in 1989, but remained active in the French science fiction scene.
He published eleven novels between 1956 and 1959 and a twelfth in 1977. Only one, Le Temple du Passé (1957), was translated into English, as The Temple of the Past in 1973. His fame outside of French-speaking countries is instead due the animated adaptations of two of his novels by René Laloux. His work also include short stories and poems of science fiction.
