Top 10 Seventies Stories

 

I ranked, as you may have guessed, my top ten stories from the Seventies. This wasn't a conscious attempt to wind up Talons Bros, but I am absolutely fine with that result because Talons of Weng Chieng is pish. 

Top 10 Sixties Stories

 

I wrote a 'Top 10 1960s Stories' article for Den of Geek. I'm pretty happy with it, the stories came to me quite quickly for the longlist and it felt quite straightforward to whittle them down. It was only after publication that I remembered these are the stories that have had the longest time to consensus to form around, being covered by every guide book and fan publication in detail (for example, Peter Haining's A Celebration). So this and the Top 10 Seventies article are probably going to be mildly controversial - in the sense that some people on the internet might disagree and possibly use exclamation marks - as a result of my going against these conventions. It's not a conscious thing on my part, it's just - and it's depressing how few people get this - my taste rather than some objective governing truth.
