The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction, founded in 1949, is the award-winning SF magazine which is the original publisher of SF classics like Stephen King's Dark Tower, Daniel Keyes's Flowers for Algernon, and Walter M. Miller's A Canticle for Leibowitz. Each double-sized bimonthly issue offers:
compelling short fiction by writers such as Ray Bradbury, Ursula K. Le Guin, Terry Bisson and many others;
the science fiction field's most respected and outspoken opinions on Books, Films and Science;
humor from our cartoonists and writers.

We offer a secure server which will allow you to purchase a one or a two year subscription for yourself or a one year subscription as a gift for someone else, both by credit card (Visa or Mastercard). If you prefer PayPal, both subscription offers can be purchased that way along with selected back issues.

F&SF is now available if you have a Kindle or its reading app. Visit our subscription page on Amazon and, with one click, get yourself a subscription to F&SF delivered directly to your Kindle or to your iPad, iPhone, iPod touch, Android reading app. If you prefer to see what you're getting before paying, we have put together a Free Exclusive Digest with all of the content posted here for each issue plus a story from the current issue.

Gordon Van Gelder has put together theme anthologies culled from the pages of The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction. Copies, signed by the Editor, are available by either choosing the PayPal buttons or by using your credit card on our secure server.

We're trying an audio edition of F&SF again. (We had one briefly about seven years ago.) We've teamed up with the folks at Recording for the Blind & Dyslexic and we're running a test by selling the July/August 2010 issue at www.fandsfaudio.com. If you know anyone who likes science fiction in audio form, be sure to let them know about this test issue.

Our Jan/Feb issue includes Richard A. Lupoff's "12:02 PM," the sequel to a story we published in our Dec. 1973 issue. That story will be reissued soon in The Book of Time from Surinam Turtle Press, but Mr. Lupoff was kind enough to grant us the right to reprint it here.

In addition to our fiction, each issue features:
book reviews by Charles de Lint, Elizabeth Hand, Chris Moriarty, James Sallis and Michelle West
Curiosities which looks at odd books of enduring interest
humor by Paul Di Filippo and film commentary by Kathi Maio or Lucius Shepard
You can find a full list on our Departments page where there are links to all of our online material.

If you have a question about the magazine, we have provided links to a number of information pages.
