In his first novel, ''The Black Cloud'', most intelligent life in the universe takes the form of interstellar gas clouds; they are surprised to learn that intelligent life can also form on [[planet]]s. He wrote a television series, ''A for Andromeda'', which was also published as a novel. His play ''Rockets in Ursa Major'' had a professional production at the [[Mermaid Theatre]] in 1962. * ''[[The Black Cloud]]'', 1957 * ''[[Ossian's Ride]]'', 1959 * ''[[A for Andromeda]]'', 1962 (co-authored with [[John Elliot (author)|John Elliot]]) * ''[[Fifth Planet (novel)|Fifth Planet]]'', 1963 (co-authored with [[Geoffrey Hoyle]]) * ''[[Andromeda Breakthrough]]'', 1965 (co-authored with John Elliot) * ''[[October the First Is Too Late]]'', 1966 * ''[[Element 79 (anthology)|Element 79]]'' (collection of short stories), 1967 * ''Rockets in Ursa Major'', 1969 (co-authored with Geoffrey Hoyle) * ''Seven Steps to the Sun'', 1970 (co-authored with Geoffrey Hoyle) * ''The Inferno'', 1973 (co-authored with Geoffrey Hoyle) * ''The Molecule Men and the Monster of Loch Ness'', 1973 (co-authored with Geoffrey Hoyle) * ''Into Deepest Space'', 1974 (co-authored with Geoffrey Hoyle) * ''[[The Incandescent Ones]]'', 1977 (co-authored with Geoffrey Hoyle) * ''The Westminster Disaster'', 1978 (co-authored with Geoffrey Hoyle and Edited by Barbara Hoyle) * ''The Frozen Planet of Azuron'', 1982 ([[Ladybird Books]], co-authored with Geoffrey Hoyle) * ''The Energy Pirate'', 1982 (Ladybird Books, co-authored with Geoffrey Hoyle) * ''The Planet of Death'', 1982 (Ladybird Books, co-authored with Geoffrey Hoyle) * ''The Giants of Universal Park'', 1982 (Ladybird Books, co-authored with Geoffrey Hoyle) * ''Comet Halley'', 1985 Most of these are independent of each other. ''Andromeda Breakthrough'' is a sequel to ''A for Andromeda'' and ''Into Deepest Space'' is a sequel to ''Rockets in Ursa Major''. The four Ladybird Books are intended for children. Some stories of the collection ''Element 79'' are fantasy, in particular "Welcome to Slippage City" and "The Judgement of Aphrodite". Both introduce mythological characters. [[The Daily Telegraph|''The Telegraph'' (UK)]] called him a "masterful" science fiction writer.<ref name="Telegraph obit"/>
