?A new resource guide identifies writers, publishers, and work of contemporary poetry from the science fiction, fantasy, and horror genres. Contemporary Science Fiction, Fantasy and Horror Poetry: A Resource Guide and Bibliographical Directory indexes the appearance of such work in magazines (excluding fanzines) and genre anthologies and also includes a bibliographical directory of poets in these genres. Both commerical and small press magazine and book publishers are represented. The directory of poets includes addresses and a brief description of each poet's work and publication. Written by Scott E. Green, the book includes a brief history of science fiction, fantasy, and horro poetry publishing in the U.S and elsewhere as well as a general and poem-title index.?-American Libraries

?An amazingly exhaustive and well-done reference guide to SF&F/horror poets and poetry--a must for fans of SF poetry, despite the price.?-QUANTUM

?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
