The History of the Science Fiction Magazine, Part 2: 1936-1945 by Mike Ashley

My rating: 5 of 5 stars



In volume two of Ashley's History of the Science Fiction Magazine he again provides a first half filled with easy to read, incredibly well researched history covering this time the years 1936 to 1945. As before, he points out the editors, authors, magazines, and stories that shaped the era (which in this book covers the beginning of the Golden Age of Science Fiction). The second half again contains a single, carefully selected story indicative of each year covered. This book is essential for any science fiction fan.
