Since space flight was achieved, and long before, science fiction
writers have imagined a myriad of stories set in the depths of the
great darkness beyond our atmosphere. From generation ships –
which are in space so long that there will be new generations
aboard who have never experienced planetary life – to orbiting
satellites in the unforgiving reaches of the vacuum, there is a
vast range of these insular environments in which innovative and
emotionally complex stories may unfold. With the British
Library’s matchless collection of periodicals and magazines at
his fingertips, Mike Ashley presents a stellar selection of tales
from the infinite void above us, including contributions from
Judith Merril, Jack Vance and John Brunner.
