Author	Norman Spinrad
ISBN	0765301555

This is the most ragingly 1960s book I've ever read that wasn't produced by '72. Somehow, it took Spinrad till the mid-'80s to sum it ALL up in the form of an idealized coming-of-age-in-space story set in a culture with a pronounced "journeyman" phase that's celebrated as the cornerstone of identity-building;...

Author	A.E. van Vogt
ISBN	0425019128

van Vogt is a firehose of sci-fi creativity. A little weird, a little raw, and like real life the pieces don't always, or even usually, fit together nicely. But his raw imagination, wildly inventive ideas and talent for instilling a sense of wonder and mystery (and some confusion) were unequaled in his...

No hay otra palabra para describir esta antología del que ya considero uno de los mejores cuentistas que he leído nunca. Entre todos destacan "Autorización para delinquir", "Un pasaje a Tranai" y "Algo a cambio de nada" destacan como lo haría Zeus entre el resto del panteón.

Author	Brian W. Aldiss
ISBN	0755100565

My second read by Aldiss and just as enjoyable. This is from the golden age of scifi or thereabout, 9 thematically connected stories about the future of the Earth. Of course that is much too vague, since most if not all science fiction deals with that very subject, but this is specifically the projected...

Author	J.G. Ballard
ISBN	0586045031

Seguramente, Ballard sea conocido por ‘El imperio del sol’, sobre todo por su estupenda adaptación cinematográfica, quizás demasiado edulcorada. Puede que también por ‘Crash’ y toda la polémica movida en torno a ella, y de su adaptación, que dejó un poso de autor depravado y morboso,...
