It was in England, however, under the editorialship of Michael Moorcock, that new talents in science fiction like J.G. Ballard and Brian W. Aldiss could shine. New Worlds returns to transport readers with stories by both daring new voices and still-scintillating old ones.Contents • Introduction: The New World's New Worlds • essay by David Garnett • The Emperor's New Reality • novelette by Pat Cadigan • Ferryman • [Kéthani Stories] • short story by Eric Brown • Great Western • novelette by Kim Newman • The White Stuff • novelette by Peter F.
