Enter the SF Gateway …
In the last years of the twentieth century (as Wells might have put it), Gollancz, Britain’s oldest and
most distinguished science fiction imprint, created the SF and Fantasy Masterworks series. Dedicated
to re-publishing the English language’s finest works of SF and Fantasy, most of which were
languishing out of print at the time, they were – and remain – landmark lists, consummately fulfilling
the original mission statement:
‘SF MASTERWORKS is a library of the greatest SF ever written, chosen with the help of today’s leading SF writers and editors.
These books show that genuinely innovative SF is as exciting today as when it was first written.’
Now, as we move inexorably into the twenty-first century, we are delighted to be widening our remit
even more. The realities of commercial publishing are such that vast troves of classic SF & Fantasy
are almost certainly destined never again to see print. Until very recently, this meant that anyone
interested in reading any of these books would have been confined to scouring second-hand
bookshops. The advent of digital publishing has changed that paradigm for ever.
The technology now exists to enable us to make available, for the first time, the entire backlists of an
incredibly wide range of classic and modern SF and fantasy authors. Our plan is, at its simplest, to
use this technology to build on the success of the SF and Fantasy Masterworks series and to go even
further.
Welcome to the new home of Science Fiction & Fantasy. Welcome to the most comprehensive
electronic library of classic SFF titles ever assembled.
Welcome to the SF Gateway.
