Included are remembrances of founders like H G Wells, Leigh Brackett, and Poul Anderson, essays on the fascist underpinnings of Lord of the Rings and Star Wars, detailed discussions of the 90s boom in Australian SF, a look at the historyof the genre in cinema, and controversial opinions about its past, its present, and its future.
