?Greenwood Press, Inc. has recently published some rather unusual
reference titles that academic and public librarians may want to
add to their collections. Contemporary Science Fiction, Fantasy,
and Horror Poetry: A Resource Guide and Biographical Directory by
Scott E. Green is one such work. It includes guides to major
magazines that publish the subject material, each including an
index of published poets; a bibliography of major anthologies; a
biographical directory of poets; an appendix of awards; a general
index; and an index of poem titles. Other interesting titles are
Humor of the Old Southwest: An Annotated Bibliography of Primary
and Secondary Sources, Guide to Sources in American Journalism
History, and Index to City and Regional Magazines of the United
States.?-Wilson Library Bulletin
?Not much is really known, or documented, about the amount of SF,
Fantasy, and Horror poetry that has been published. So contemporary
science fiction, fantasy, and horror poetry has achieved a first,
and makes an outstanding job of, compiling this biographical
resource of poetry from magazines and anthologies into this
quick-source directory of the poets and where their work appeared.
Included are the commercial and newsstand magazines, key and
single-author anthologies, and even a compendium of small-press
magazines featuring a great deal of poetry. This is an exhaustive,
complete source, and a must for every serious SF, Fantasy/Horror
bibliographical library.?-True Review
?The author corresponded with many poets, writers, and
organizations to compile this guide; using the resources of the
Science Fiction Poetry Association and its publication Star-Line,
many poems and authors were discovered. The section on anthologies
is definitely the strongest part of the work because it does
provide complete bibliographic information. Recommended for
libraries that are building a comprehensive science fiction,
fantasy, and horror collection.?-Booklist
