In the mid-1960s, British science fiction and fantasy were
convulsed by the "New Wave." This movement emerged from the SF
magazines edited by John Carnell. Such brilliant NEW WORLDS and
SCIENCE FANTASY writers as J. G. Ballard, Brian W. Aldiss, John
Brunner, and Michael Moorcock heralded the rise of this new kind of
fantastic fiction. John Boston and Damien Broderick's concluding
volume of their critical trilogy examines the history and
development of these important magazines--and the fiction that they
championed. By the end of this period (1964), Carnell had set the
stage for that major development in UK science fiction--the new
wave adventures of the transformed NEW WORLDS, under the editorship
of Moorcock--and had himself shifted gear into the next mode of SF
publishing as editor of the paperback anthology series, New
Writings in SF. Boston and Broderick's series will become the
definitive critical histories of these important British magazines.
