Wells to Michael Moorcock.Volume Two takes up where Volume One left off, with the beginnings of the 'new wave', and shows how, in the 'sixties, experimental and traditional SF existed side by side – in what was a new Golden Age for British SF. Writers include Bob Shaw, John Wyndham, Arthur C. Clarke, Kingsley Amis, Brian Aldiss, Fred Hoyle, J.G. Ballard, Michael Moorcock and Keith Roberts.The Best of British SF 1
