The Road to Science Fiction

The Road to Science Fiction, edited by James Gunn, is a six-volume anthology showing the development and history of science fiction from its earliest prototypical examples to its stories published as late as the 1990s. The first four volumes, originally published in Mentor Books and recently reprinted by Scarecrow Books, trace the origins of science fiction from Lucian of Samosata through Wells, Heinlein, and Asimov, up to George Alec Effinger. Volume #5: The British Way covers British science fiction and Volume #6, international science fiction. The last two volumes are available from White Wolf Books. Critics and scholars have called the series the best and most comprehensive anthology ever compiled.
