Science Fiction Series

Often, literature for children appears in the form of series, in which familiar characters appear in book after book. In the late nineteenth and early twentieth century, authors began to write science fiction series for children. Much has been written about these early series, particularly the Tom Swift books, but comparatively little has been written about the wide variety of juvenile science fiction series of the second half of the twentieth century. To fill this void, this book provides a critical look at the history, themes, settings, characters, and construction of juvenile science fiction series published since 1945. The volume looks at such topics as animals and aliens in science fiction, attitudes toward humor, and the handling of science. As a special feature, the book provides a listing of the various series.

Complementing Science-Fiction: The Early Years, which surveys science-fiction published in book form from its beginnings through 1930, the present volume covers all the science-fiction printed in the genre magazines -- Amazing, Astounding; and Wonder, along with offshoots and minor magazines -- from 1926 through 1936. This is the first time this historically important literary phenomenon, which stands behind the enormous modern development of science-fiction, has been studied thoroughly and accurately. The heart of the book is a series of descriptions of all 1,835 stories published during this period, ranging up to 1,000 words per story, plus bibliographic information. Supplementing this are many useful features: detailed histories of each of the magazines, an issue by issue roster of contents, a technical analysis of the art work, brief authors' biographies, poetry and letter indexes, a theme and motif index of approximately 30,000 entries, and general indexes. A long introduction analyzes ideas behind the stories, science involved, commercial aspects, evolution of story types, and social aspects of authors and readers. Science-Fiction: The Gernsback Years is not only indispensable for reference librarians, collectors, readers, and scholars interested in science-fiction, it is also of importance to the study of popular culture during the Great Depression in the United States. Most of its data, which are largely based on rare and almost unobtainable sources, are not available elsewhere. The book also includes many corrections of the earlier literature about the genre.
