Product Information
This edition offers short, evaluative descriptions of around 3500 novels, brief statements and reviews by critics and a guide to sequels, related titles and film versions. New to this edition is expanded coverage of books of the late 19th- and early 20th-centuries. Also new is the category novelizations and spin-off fiction , a section which reflects the tremendous growth in these publications since the 1980s. All science fiction movie novelizations are covered, as well as a selection of radio and television science fiction novelizations. The author's intention is to provide coverage of all the masterpieces , and otherwise, of modern science fiction. His zero to four-star rating system should be both provocative for buffs, as well as a useful guide for the newer enthusiasts. The book's structure allows the reader to track down the book of the film, to check the author of favourite titles, and other books written by them, and to browse through 3500 brief descriptions.Product Identifiers
