So yeah, they may be better, unexpurgated versions, or whatever, but I just can't bring myself to re-buy something that I already have sitting on my shelf anyway.Desdichadohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14774274812688958457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7487871339000666216.post-48834551465507758442009-05-26T08:24:27.184-04:002009-05-26T08:24:27.184-04:00I just came across a news online science fiction m...I just came across a news online science fiction magazine http://kalkion.com.

I have been wanting to subscribe for quite some time, but I'm already behind in my reading for all things Pathfinder (I subscribe to all those lines also) and getting another novel each month would be too much. <br />The bi-monthly output however, and the 30% discount sealed the deal for me. <br />I'm rather excited to be getting this books. :DF.G.

Every two months fits both my reading speed and my budget. The last book I read from the list was Brackett's Talisman/Sinharat compilation and I didn't come across any memorable errors. I have yet to read my copy of Jirel but I believe it was one of the first that Pazio published, so I'm hazarding a guess that they've improved in the error of editing. I'm a big supporter of them as things are presently.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13391554443509069019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7487871339000666216.post-84861511602347423392009-05-25T08:42:11.317-04:002009-05-25T08:42:11.317-04:00I would subscribe in a heartbeat, if there were a ...I would subscribe in a heartbeat, if there were a guarantee that the editing quality had improved significantly since the typo-tastic Jirel of Joiry (beautifully written book, awesome cover, totally let down by the number of errors). Unless I hear it has done, though, I'll (reluctantly) carry on picking up most of my classic pulp fantasy in the second-hand market.Ian Sturrockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07449065244623947284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7487871339000666216.post-54828030399951883982009-05-25T07:04:20.384-04:002009-05-25T07:04:20.384-04:00I subscribed based on that announcement.

With all the vintage mass market paperbacks I've been picking up lately, actually reading more than a handful of the Planet Stories books is a bit of a chore. (Though what I've read, the Brackett and Moore stuff particularly, has been great.)<br /><br />I'm still subscribed, and I expect to be for quite a while, but it's going to take me a long damn time to get through everything they've been putting out. I don't mind, I've always had a library building instinct, but it is a lot to read.Wayne Rossihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11347401495298367324noreply@blogger.com
