SCIENCE FICTION \& FANTASY BOOK REVIEW
- SCIENCE FICTION \& FANTASY BOOK REVIEW
US critical magazine, founded and ed Neil BARRON, published by BORGO PRESS, 13 issues 1979-80; revived with the SCIENCE FICTION RESEARCH ASSOCIATION as publisher, still ed Barron, 20 issues 1982-3; amalgamated with Fantasy Newsletter to form FANTASY REVIEW, Jan 1984, ed Robert A. Collins, with Barron as reviews editor. This useful journal often reviewedas many as 50 books an issue - novels, collections, secondary and associational literature - and with so many reviewers involved was a triumph of editorial organization. Its passing is regretted, especially since SFRA NEWSLETTER, which since the late 1980s has been doing something similar, usually prints rather shorter reviews (especially since mid-1992) than did SF\&FBR, and its standards seem a little more uneven.
