This paper is a survey of the portrayal of super-Earths in science fiction. The discovery of super-Earths is so recent that the theoretical study of such worlds is in its infancy. However super-Earths were anticipated to some extent in science fiction. While in retrospect not all these fictional worlds are physically plausible, they do offer a glimpse of the wide array of super-Earths, and perhaps life forms, to be anticipated in reality.
