Spectrum 8
reviewed by David Soyka
Highlights of this issue include "Tall Tales on the Iron Horse" by Colin P. Davies. The narrator is attempting to save his girlfriend from the clutches of a religious cult, but the adventure entails some unexpected side trips. Equally weird, though in a different way that is perhaps more unsettling because it is not that far removed from current reality, is Josh Lacey's "A Night at the Movies," a meditation on human relationships taken in the context of the artificial environments we create for ourselves.

Spectrum SF #4
reviewed by Steven H Silver
This issue features the start of a serial by John Christopher titled "Bad Dream." It's set about 20 years in the future when the effects of the European Union may fully be felt. There are also 3 stories by Mary Soon Lee, Keith Roberts (one in his Kaeti series) and Eric Brown.

This issue features the 3rd and last part of a serial by Keith Roberts set in the same world as his novel Kiteworld and 3 stories by Charles Stross, Jack Deighton and Eric Brown.
