Dark Horizons #56
Dark Horizons #56 was sent out last month to members of the British Fantasy Society.
This 128pp bumper issue featured stories by Val Gryphin, Ian Hunter, Jim Steel, Niall Boyce, Philip Meckley, Rafe McGregor, Ralph Robert Moore, Patrick Whitaker and Andrew Knighton, interviews with Brian Stableford and Simon Bestwick, and poetry by Charles Christian, Jan Edwards and Peter Coleborn, Diana Lewis, Allen Ashley and Ian Hunter, and illustrations by Inna Hansen, Mark Pexton and Howard Watts, who was responsible for the lovely cover.
The guest editorial, on gender bias in fantasy and the BFS in particular, came from Jenny Barber, while Mike Barrett provided sundry observations on Arkham House.
Dark Horizons: Direct from the Future!
Dark Horizons, the journal of the British Fantasy Society, will now accept submissions by wave, at least for a little while to see how it goes. (Click here for more information about Google Wave.) See our submission guidelines for more information.
Dark Horizons 55
 Twelve short stories, from blood-soaked battlefields to drowning futures! Three articles, on the most beloved of writers and the utterly unknown! Twelve poems! Seven contributing artists! One hundred and sixty exciting pages! Seventy thousand thrilling words! Yes, the editor got a bit carried away when putting together Dark Horizons 55… but it looks like it’s turned out all right in the end. His wife is still speaking to him (just) and the issue has gone to the printers, wrapped in its marvellous cover by Arthur Wang, to be despatched with our September mailing.
If you can't wait that long, this is the first issue of Dark Horizons which we’re making available to members as an ebook (less a couple of items which we couldn’t clear) – just email
