Gothic Science Fiction by S Macarthur

Gothic Science Fiction explores the fascinating world of gothic influenced science fiction. From Frankenstein to Doctor Who and from H. G Wells to Stephen King, the book charts the rise of a genre and follows the descent into darkness that consumes it.

"Gothic Science Fiction is a lively, trenchant and intelligent bookWith cogent analyses of everything from Mary Shelley's Frankenstein to Christopher Nolan's reinvention of The Dark Knight, Sian MacArthur's book is a study prodigal in ideas, communicated with enthusiasm. It makes a variety of innovative points about a familiar genre, and utilises her thorough knowledge of the field in a provocative fashion." - Barry Forshaw, author of British Gothic Cinema and BFI Classics: The War of the Worlds

Sian MacArthur is an independent academic and researcher with literary interests in Gothic and science fiction, and historical interests in the Cold War. She is the author of Crime and the Gothic: Identifying the Gothic Footprint in Modern Crime Fiction (2011).
