The single most authoritative source of information on fantastic literature for this period, featuring news columns, reviews, monthly book lists, and commentary on the genre and the people connected with it. Locus provides an invaluable perspective on the field from the late 1960s to the present. "Coverage of fantastic literature generally, including the most current and comprehensive reviews of general books and magazine fiction, interviews with SF pros, and lists of published and forthcoming U.S. and British books. Coverage of foreign-language SF has been a regular feature since the later 1980s. Has dominated the Hugo category for best semiprofessional magazine." - Anatomy of Wonder (1995) 12-24. "From a bi-weekly, scrappy looking, mimeographed newszine, Locus has developed and expanded until it fully deserves its subtitle, 'The Newspaper of the Science Fiction Field.' It is the basic source of raw news about SF during the years it has been published. In addition to news, Locus has run columns on writing SF by Algis Budrys and Norman Spinrad, selective book reviews, a bestseller list, a monthly list (beginning in 1974) of the books actually published in America, an annual tabulation of books published, and an annual survey of the personal data and tastes of its readership. Such features, along with extensive news coverage in an average forty-four-page monthly issue, make it absolutely indispensable." - Tymn and Ashley (eds), Science Fiction, Fantasy, and Weird Fiction Magazines, p. 829. [Reference: Barron (ed), Fantasy Literature 11-40. Barron (ed), Horror Literature 11-40]. Issues range from very good to nearly fine. (Note: extra postage will apply). (31953).
