The Complete Dangerous Visions Anthology by Harlan Ellison (ed. Jerry eBooks 2017)
Requirements: ePUB reader, 2.4Mb
Overview: “Dangerous Visions” should be a three-book science fiction short story anthology edited by writer Harlan Ellison. Consisting of Dangerous Visions (published in October 1967); and Again, Dangerous Visions (published in March 1972). A third, and final book in the series, The Last Dangerous Visions, has yet to be published.
Comprised of 74 stories selected by and carefully edited by Ellison, and written by some of the finest writers of the genre. As the titles suggest, many of the stories were considered fairly “edgy”/ground-breaking in style and content for the late-1960s. The books, along with the individual stories and authors, received numerous awards upon publication; and garnering Harlan Ellison two special Hugo Awards for his editing.
Yet, all this doesn’t begin to explain the influence that the books (particularly Dangerous Visions) have had over the years. The anthologies are largely acknowledged as starting the “new wave” of science fiction that developed after that “golden age” era.
Put simply, the “Dangerous Visions” books are a landmark in science fiction. Even after 50 years in print the collections still have the magic, the ingenuity; and above all, some of finest short stories found in any anthology.
