New SF, Fantasy, and Horror magazines seen, September



• Vol. 123 No. 11, November 2003, $3.99/C$5.99, 144pp, cover art by Michael Carroll
• Near-monthly (11 times/year) magazine of science fiction and nonfiction; published since 1930 (originally Astounding); edited by Stanley Schmidt
• Website:
http://www.analogsf.com/

• Fiction in this issue consists of novelettes by Larry Niven & Brenda Cooper and by Pete D. Manison, short stories by Lloyd Biggle Jr., Ron Collins, Robert Scherrer, and Kathy Oltion, and a Probability Zero vignette by Kevin Levites. Also, part 3 (of 4) of a serial by Edward M. Lerner.
• Science fact by Richard A. Lovett is about astrobiology's "earth-centricity".
• Stanley Schmidt's editorial isn't about the war, it's about those who take sides and are unwilling to listen to opposing views. And Jeffery D. Kooistra's "The Alternate View" column isn't about the war ("At the current rate of progress, the war will be old news long before this column sees print"), it's about the Drake equations and UFOs. Tom Easton's book review column covers Jack McDevitt, John Varley, Allen Steele, and others.
