We study axion-dilaton cosmologies derived from the low-energy string effective action. We present the classical homogeneous Friedmann-Robertson-Walker solutions and derive the semi-classical perturbation spectra in the dilaton, axion and moduli fields in the pre-Big Bang scenario. By constructing the unique S-duality invariant field perturbations for the axion and dilaton fields we derive S-duality invariant solutions, valid when the axion field is time-dependent as well as in a dilaton-vacuum cosmology. Whereas the dilaton and moduli fields have steep blue perturbation spectra (with spectral index n=4) we find that the axion spectrum depends upon the expansion rate of the internal dimensions (0.54
