- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5The Second Golden Age of Science Fiction is a collection of science fiction stories by Mark Clifton who was an American science fiction writer who was first published in 1952. He won the Hugo Award for best novel in 1958 for They’d Rather Be Right which is included in this collection.Like all collections, I enjoyed some of the stories much more than others. I actually wasn’t all that taken with the Hugo winner, much preferring the first story “Star Bright” from 1952 which concerns a father discovering that his young daughter is much brighter than he, in fact, using ESP she has worked out how to time travel and how to travel to other planets. But although she is of a far superior mind, she is still a little girl and how is he going to be able to keep her safe. My other favorite story was “Do Unto Others” (1958), in this short and humorous story, a young man accompanies his strait-laced aunt as she travels to another planet to ensure the aliens are clothed and not walking around naked.Considered an innovator of science fiction his stories are of alien invasion, expanding technology, and space colonization but as he was writing in the 1950s his work gives us insight into what people were thinking about and concerned with at that time. He seemed to feel that advanced technology was something to be feared far more than aliens. The Second Golden Age of Science Fiction was an interesting collection that I enjoyed.
