“Fun and quirky tales and ruminations about a genius, a hero, and a role model for the ages!”

David Brin, author of The Postman and The Ancient Ones


A Bibliotheca Pick of the Top YA Audiobooks of the Month

Luckily for humanity, scientist Marie Curie applied her brilliant mind and indomitable spirit to expanding the frontiers of science, but what if she had instead drifted toward the darkness?

At the cusp of between child- and adulthood, at the crossroads between science and superstition, a teen Marie Curie faces the factual and the fantastic in this fabulous collection of stories that inspire, delight, and ask the question: What if she had used her talents for diabolical purposes?

The Hitherto Secret Experiments of Marie Curie includes twenty short stories and poems by award-winning writers including New York Times bestselling authors Seanan McGuire, Scott Sigler, Jane Yolen, Alethea Kontis, Stacia Deutsch, and Jonathan Maberry, among others.

    Ahistorical, but good for kids

    I found this book to be mythologizing Marie Curie a bit too often for my tastes. It works well for fictional characters, but knowing that this is a real human being who lived and struggled and succeeded makes it a bit iffy for me. It might be a good way to introduce kids and teens who don't know of her yet to her general studies and discoveries.
