New Writings in SF
Encyclopedia
New Writings in SF was a series of thirty British
science fiction
anthologies published from 1964 to 1977 under the successive editorships of John Carnell
from 1964 to 1972 (the last volume with the aid of Daniel Lloyd) and Kenneth Bulmer
from 1973 to 1977. There were in addition four special volumes compiling material from the regular volumes. The series showcased the work of mostly British and Commonwealth science fiction authors, and "provided a forum for a generation of newer authors."
It is the earliest of four notable science fiction anthology series of the 1960s and 1970s. The popularity of New Writings crossed the Atlantic, and several US
anthology publications emerged, including Orbit, Nova, and Universe. However, unable to sustain the pace that anthologies demanded, the genre ended up a fad, lacking the circulation of magazines.
The series was issued quarterly for the first nine volumes but could not sustain this pace thereafter. Successive issues were released at somewhat irregular intervals, with as few as one and as many as five volumes appearing in a given year. Initial publication was usually in hardcover by Dennis Dobson to 1972, and by Sidgwick & Jackson
from 1972 onward. Volumes were reissued in paperback after an interval by Corgi, though on one occasion the pattern was reversed, with the Corgi edition appearing first. Another London-based publisher involved with the series was Transworld Publishers
.
The American
publisher for volumes 1-9 was Bantam Books
, which reissued volumes 1-6 in paperback, usually a few years after publication in England. The contents of Bantam's volumes 7-9 diverged from their British counterparts, consisting of repackaged selections from volumes 7-15 of the original series. Bantam did not continue its series beyond its volume 9, and there was no American publication for the remaining volumes of the original series.
Dozens of prolific authors contributed stories, some in series, such as James White
