the vanguard of an emerging group of talented British writers. They
included Brian Aldiss, Sydney J. Bounds, John Brunner, Ken Bulmer,
John Christopher, John Russell Fearn, Philip E. High and John
Wyndham, who collectively helped lay the foundations for British
science fiction as it exists today. Tubb's first professional sale,
a short story, was published in 1951, in the leading British
science fiction magazine New Worlds, where he quickly became
established as a star contributor. The first of his many novels
appeared as a paperback original shortly thereafter, and he was
soon featuring in all of the other British SF magazines, most
notably Authentic Science Fiction, Nebula Science Fiction, and
Science Fantasy. Over the next decade, Tubb also became established
in the leading American SF magazines, selling outstanding stories
to Astounding Science Fiction, Galaxy, If, and Planet Stories. best
