	Annihilation Factotum: The Work of Barrington J. Bayley
		Bayley's next novel, The Fall of Chronopolis (1974), is possibly the ultimate time-travel story, sweeping the corners of the sub-genre for the few dusty paradoxes missed by previous writers.
		Bayley was possibly gearing up for his most engrossing novel, i The Garments of Caean (1976), a colorful, dandified and frilly epic with poisoned lining and a denouement as abrupt as sharpened lapels.
		Bayley copes admirably, his cluttered style is cut with too much precision to snag on the brambles of nightschool technique.

	Barrington J. Bayley - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Barrington John Bayley (April 9, 1937 –) is best known for being an inventive science fiction writer, whose works in both novel and short story form weave profound metaphysical topics with more traditional science fictional fare.
		Barrington Bayley was born in Birmingham, England and currently lives in Telford, Shropshire, England, with his wife.
		A long-time friend of Michael Moorcock, who gave him a great deal of early exposure in his role as editor of New Worlds in the 1960s and 1970s, Barrington Bayley was a member of threesome including Moorcock and J.

	SF REVIEWS.NET: The Pillars of Eternity / Barrington J. Bayley
		BARRINGTON J. One of Bayley's most outré and witty novels, The Pillars of Eternity tells the story of space pilot Joachim Boaz, and a quest to find the treasures of a lost planet.
		Bayley's hallmark is the seemingly bottomless well of ideas from which he draws his stories, taking them and molding them into unheard of shapes until you're left with something quite unlike anything else in SF.
		I suspect that if Bayley were an interior decorator he'd figure out a way not only to put the furniture on the walls and ceiling, but to fix it to where you could sit on it all the same.

	Brian Stableford reviews THE KNIGHTS OF THE LIMITS by Barrington J. Bayley
		Bayley began his association with New Worlds when it was under the editorship of John Carnell; his stories of that period appeared under the pseudonym P. Woods, but he emerged from this concealment to do his best work under the aegis of Michael Moorcock.
		Bayley was never a ''new-wave'' writer - his ideas, though always offbeat and striking, clearly belong to the context of traditional science fiction rather than to the more introverted fiction of "inner space" customarily associated with New Worlds.
		The one other science fiction writer with whom Bayley has a close affinity is Charles Harness, several of whose stories were reprinted in early issues of Moorcock 's New Worlds, and much of his work falls within the same category of exotic romance spiced with eccentric ideas.

	SF REVIEWS.NET: The Grand Wheel / Barrington J. Bayley
		BARRINGTON J. Barrington J. Bayley had (and still has — I keep reminding myself he's still alive) a most delightful skill at taking traditional space opera and adventure plots and spinning them in unique directions like nobody's business.
		Chance, causality, non-causality, infinity itself; Bayley juggles these ideas as if doing so is the most natural thing in the world, and he does it within the framework of what could be, given a slightly less nebbishy hero, a James Bond thriller of the old school.
		Bayley also conjures up memorable settings that haunt you long after the tale is told, such as the gambling world of Chasm, whose Vegas-y pleasure halls line a five-mile deep fissure and whose bright lights and kitschy luxury are regularly contrasted by the nightmarish sight of falling bodies.

	Ace Double Reviews 8
		Barrington Bayley is one of SF's "wild men".
		But the central notion of the novel, the true nature of the Lens, is at once wacky, original, powerful, and in the end just plain cool enough to pretty much justify some of the carelessness of the rest of the book.
		I may be wrong, but it seems to me that Bayley here, in engaging in really far out, pseudo-scientific speculations, is doing something that SF writers used to do a lot, but don't so much anymore.

	Ace Double Reviews 17
		This Ace Double looked particularly interesting to me, as Bayley and Barrett have both published outstanding stuff, and both are at their best quite notably quirky writers.
		I have compared Barrington J. Bayley to Charles Harness before, and I think the comparison holds up insofar as concerns the wackiness and imaginativeness of the concepts they build their books around.
		Bayley began publishing SF as a teen in the mid 50s, but his first novel was 1970's The Star Virus.
