“Boskovich sets the tone with a conversational style that enwraps
solid scholarship…the collection will broaden your horizons and
turn you on to wonders bubbling under the mass-market commodified
pleasures to which we all too often limit ourselves.”
*The Washington Post*
“My only complaint about “Lost Transmissions” is that there isn’t
more of it…Buy this book because it is beautiful, but also so
they’ll make another.”
*The Houston Chronicle*
“This treasure trove of secrets, presented in a generously
illustrated hardbound volume, is like a gateway into science
fiction’s inner sanctum.”
*Kirkus Reviews*
“…a fascinating enrichment of the history of sf and fantasy."
*Booklist*
“...a fascinating illustrated history…”
*TOR.com*
“Boskovich is to be commended for her editorial selection and for
doing the heavy lifting of writing 44 well-researched essays on a
wide variety of thoughtfully curated subjects and figures.”
*Locus Magazine*
