Barrington Bayley was born in Birmingham , England and currently lives in Telford , Shropshire , England , with his wife. Most commonly described as "underrated" or "visionary", he has been cited as an influence by writers as well known as Brian Stableford and Bruce Sterling . 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. G. Ballard which plotted to overthrow traditional science fiction. Of the three, Bayley was perhaps the most inventive and the least successful. He is most commonly accused of poor character development and sloppy writing, but as a trade-off for stimulating, pyrotechnic, men's own adventure space opera, these short-comings are easy to absorb.
