Novae Terrae was the first British fanzine. It was the clubzine of the Nuneaton branch of the Science Fiction League. In March 1939 its new editor Ted Carnell arranged to have it professionally printed and renamed it to New Worlds; however, it only lasted four issues. Carnell later revived New Worlds as a prozine.
