When the characters in Destination Brain enter the brain of Soviet scientist Peter Shapirov, it is the first time anyone has gone into anyone’s bloodstream. Asimov apparently wants his readers to forget the original Fantastic Voyage. This is a complete, new novel, not a sequel to the film script.

He never felt Fantastic Voyage was his, he says in a note prefacing his new book, Fantastic Voyage II: Destination Brain.ĭon’t let the title mislead you. It was the novelization of a movie script that he did not create.

Isaac Asimov - scientist, scholar and award-winning author of at least 200 books - wrote Fantastic Voyage in 1966. For 20 years, Fantastic Voyage has thrilled moviegoers and readers alike with its story of people who, shrunk to the size of a molecule, travel through the human bloodstream.
