Winner of the Hugo Award for Best Nonfiction.
"Not since Brian W. Aldiss' landmark Billion Year Spree has there been such a lively, entertaining, and provocative look at Science Fiction.
"Completely revised, expanded, and full of updated information and exciting new insights, Trillion Year Spree chronicles the fascinating history of Science Fiction, both in books and on film. From the very beginnings with Mary Shelley's Frankenstein to the pulp magazines of the '30s, Orwell's 1984 , and Asimov, Heinlein, and Hubbard, it is all here -- a closely reasoned and highly original analysis of the trends, theories, and current practices of this rich and varied genre." [jacket blurb, Trillion Year Spree , 1986]
