I recently published part one of a fantasy trilogy some might find interesting; The Magic of Fuller, "Keeper of the Stone". Feel free to contact me with any feedback.http://www.strategicpublishinggroup.com/title/TheMagicofFullerBookOne-KeeperoftheStone.htmlWill Mallettehttp://www.strategicpublishinggroup.com/title/TheMagicofFullerBookOne-KeeperoftheStone.htmlnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7354250.post-19224306250119491392010-01-07T20:41:16.877-06:002010-01-07T20:41:16.877-06:00Definitely worth a library check.

The award nominated stuff is alright, but it's not enough to get me into the magazine.<br /><br />I've got the same relationship with Asimov's - and I did subscribe. I almost like enough of Asimov's fiction to make it worthwhile to resubscribe, but not quite. <br /><br />Do check out the Asimov's 30th Anniversary Anthology. THAT is excellent. <br /><br />Weird Tales is worth a subscription. I haven't resubscribed, but I really, really need to.Joehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16094675116398769415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7354250.post-87019993437659541852010-01-07T16:16:30.989-06:002010-01-07T16:16:30.989-06:00I have an odd relationship with this magazine. I ...I have an odd relationship with this magazine. I had a subscription in past years and have since cancelled it. F&SC consistently published what I felt was amazing fiction of no interest to me. Being as it is so well regarded I always wondered if there was something wrong with me as a reader. Perhaps my taste in fiction were, and still are, skewed. <br /><br />Having said that Van Gelder hasn't been the editor for sixty years, but he is still the guy choosing the stories. I've been curious about this book since it came out but I think it remains a library check out for me.<br /><br />Even though I'm always hard pressed to not buy anything with Michael Swanwick's name on the cover...Chad Hullhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17774092046594256969noreply@blogger.com
