Ansible Editions

Ansible Editions is an unfeasibly small publishing company issuing POD books and ebooks. The first selections, in 2003, were by David I.

From the beginning Ansible Editions has existed to publish new and newly updated or collected out-of-print works by authors who are personal favourites. AE was launched in 2003 by David Langford and Christopher Priest (as Ansible E-ditions), and rebooted in 2012 (without the hyphen) by Langford and Greg Pickersgill. Masson -- an expanded edition of his The Caltraps of Time -- and John Sladek, begi

nning with an unpublished novelette followed by reissues of all his story collections. Our next focus was the critical writing of Algis Budrys, and Langford is also issuing AE ebook versions of his own backlist.

A current project here, suggested by Greg Pickersgill, is a collection of all the New Worlds author, editor, artist etc profiles that appeared on the inside front (or back) cover during the John Carnell era. Mike Moorcock has kindly approved this, and I hope to release the free ebook and modestly priced trade paperback in May. Keep watching the skies at https://taff.org.uk/ebooks.php?all ...
