From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ace Books have published hundreds of
science fiction titles, starting in 1953. Many of these were
Ace Doubles (
dos-a-dos format), but they also published many single volumes. Between 1953 and 1968, the books had a letter-series identifier; after that date they were given five-digit numeric serial numbers. There were a total of 378 letter-series
sf titles (62 S&D, 174 F, 19 M, 78 G, 29 H, 1 N, 1 K, and 14 A series books).
The list given here gives a date of publication; in all cases this refers to the date of publication by Ace, and not the date of original publication of the novels. For more information about the history of these titles, see
Ace Books , which includes a discussion of the serial numbering conventions used and an explanation of the letter-code system.
