His most interesting narratives are found in his three short story collections: Fabra must be regarded as one of the pioneers of Spanish science fiction. Although the twenty-six stories included in the aforementioned collections are not exclusively science fiction or of a scientific expectation, they are the ones which most draw our attention today. A descrip- tion of a Martian civilisation is not absent in such a precursor to modern science fiction En el planeta Marte [On Planet Mars] 6.

Fabra, moreover, assigns an openly ideological fi- nality to the story. This tone characterises not only his own body of work but that of nearly every science fiction writer of the period: Wesleyan University Press, , pp.
