Fred Hoyle’s anthology work includes Laughing Space: An Anthology of Science Fiction Humor (1982), co-edited to collect funny science fiction from various writers, and The Astronomy Book (2012), a posthumous compilation of his astronomical writing. These collections showcase different facets of his engagement with science and fiction.
Laughing Space is a reminder that Hoyle had a sense of humor about the genre he wrote in, even as his own fiction tended toward serious scientific speculation. The Astronomy Book brings together his popular science writing for a new generation of readers.
