Written by a world expert in Science Fiction, From Alien to The Matrix is a hugely entertaining and enlightening read and a new critical approach to SF films that considers them as autonomous creations and contributions to the genre and to the broader culture. Kaveney looks at the movies of alien invasion and movie franchises, and offers a celebration of Galaxy Quest; deep readings of the Alien quartet, of Dark City, Starship Troopers and Strange Days; extended consideration of the Star Wars series and the Terminator films, and much more.
Roz Kaveney is editor of and chief contributor to 'Reading the Vampire Slayer' (I.B.Tauris) now available in its new, up-dated edition. She is a freelance writer and editor, who also contributed to 'The Encyclopaedia of Fantasy' and 'The Cambridge Guide to Women Writing in English'.
