In this hilarious, inspiring and provocative series of essays,
Kingsley Amis introduces every reader to the wonders and value of
science fiction writing. From the extraordinary ideas but sexless
science of Jules Verne to the power of H. G. Wells's terrifying
storytelling; from the brilliance of bad science fiction writing to
the potency of their important ideas; from a portrait of the
average SF reader to Amis's sad prediction that this genre will
never make it in film or television, New Maps of Hell is a warm and
witty exploration of a world many readers may be yet to discover.
